Whatapp Parent-Managed accounts. Anyone used this feature yet?

I've heard that WhatsApp are slowing introducing Parent-Managed accounts and wondered if anyone has used then yet?

I really want to delay my kid having WhatsApp because I know there are some horrendous images and videos circulating on there.
I like the idea of having more control, but I don't think this goes far enough.

Personally I'd like to be able to turn off the receiving of images completely so it is purely text conversations - but I'm not holding my breath for Meta to implement that!

I've never heard of it, but would be interested - is there an upper age limit?
