Parental Controls Glitch!!!!

My son learned from classmates and showed me that by turning his phone on/off OR by swiping to his app page a number of times the screen freezes. In either case, parental controls no longer work on his phone and he has access to anything he wants. WTF APPLE??!!!!

parental controls unreliable Hi there -- I keep having to reset my son's parental control settings. They seem to disappear after a day or so -- all settings like downtime, app limits, and content restrictions, just disappear. I am also resetting the passcode every time.
