Oh, and for the android tablet, he can use routines. One called focus can be configured to close the parental controll program anytime it tries to launch. I was actually kinda proud about how he found that workaround. He didn't even learn it from the web, just figured it out on his own. But anyway, they only fix is to block access to settings. But then he can't manage Bluetooth devices like headphones, or join wireless networks like at the doctors office. And the app people say there is nothing they can do because android doesn't give them the ability to control things as fine grained as that.
