I have a teenager that's gone rogue. I want him to have the ability to call, but that's it. Is there a way to do this? For safety reasons I don't want to turn his phone off completely. Any suggestions?
TIA

I have a similar issue and used Verizon Smart Family for a while but recently stopped because the VPN always slowed the phone down and caused other glitchy issues. Isn't there a way to control the data plan remotely without having that VPN active?
If you only want your child to have talk/text access only, what about getting them a flip phone and using the prepaid talk/text only plan? If that's not an option, there is a way to passcode lock app downloads on iPhones for example, so I'd check elsewhere on the internet to see if other alternatives to Verizon Smart Family would work.
One moment for your answer in a Private Note. Ross.
