I’m after a bit of advice
I’m divorced. Have 2 kids around 40% of the time so they’re with me a fair bit. Whilst at mine they bring iPads and access things online like Roblox, have FaceTime and message their friends etc. I’m ok with that, as is their mum
Also whilst at mine they sometimes watch YouTube videos on my devices. Things like YouTubers doing gaming videos of roblox or minecraft. I’m ok with that as it’s in the lounge, we all watch, and I’m confident the content is fine, appropriate and no searing etc.
Their mum doesn’t let them watch YouTube but I think is aware they watch a bit at mine
Today my daughter messaged me saying she’d set up a YouTube account for herself on her iPad to watch these videos at her mums. Her mum is unaware
My first response was that she should tell her but that would mean her being asked to delete the account. If I told her mum she’d be asked to delete it, then probably set another up in secret and not tell either of us.
As it stands I haven’t told her mum yet, and she’s given me her password so I’m happy I can see what’s happening.
My dilemma is that clearly an account her mum doesn’t know about isn’t on. But she won’t tell her, and if I do I may just mean she doesn’t share things with me in future.
I’m thinking I should tell her mum but ask she be allowed to keep the account as long as she’s open about it being monitored...
