Urgh I know that people will say “you should watch what your kids are doing” but I never would have thought that my son would find sexually explicit podcasts on Spotify of all places.
We have a family subscription for Spotify - it means we can use it on our devices. The kids like listening to music in their rooms using their phones/tablets. The explicit filter is a bit pants for songs, but better than nothing.
Anyway, turns out that Spotify has podcasts and some of these are very adult with descriptions of sex etc etc. Basically porn for the ears.
Ds (12) has incredibly strict controls on his phone plus all the PCs etc - and he’s not been able to get through. However turns out he’s searched sex on Spotify and has found these podcasts.
I’ve no way of filtering/blocking these podcasts and I’m going to have to remove Spotify - which seems so extreme - AIBU to be annoyed rhat Spotify don’t have decent parental controls in place?? All I want is a “block” button at the very least and then I can do my job as a parent.
I feel like I’m constantly playing catch up at trying to protect my child from inappropriate content and almost want to ban the internet completely at this rate 😂
