Does Apple notify the parent if this occurs, particularly if they decide to view or send anyway.

I like that this warns the child but if it’s a child, their innocences is what bad people prey on.


If they choose to view or send a photo after the warnings, does Apple notify the parent or guardian of an “incident?”


The reason I’m asking is due to a child, especially under 13 years old, is not at a point to understand what is behind the blur or consequences of sending something inappropriate. I don’t think they are of age for it to be their choice.

Hello heath_1980,


You started from a great resource: About communication safety in Messages


As mentioned in the article once the feature is on the child has the option to "message an adult that they trust about the photo. If the child is under 13, Messages prompts the child to start a conversation with their parent or guardians."


It doesn't appear outside of the child initiating this action that any alert is sent to a parent or other devices. If needed, reach out to Apple directly to further assist.
