Hi twinkieluvr,
It sounds like you're trying to make it so that Safari doesn't offer the option for Private Browsing. I love the management features that are accessible on the Apple devices, and I can help you.
If you enable Restrictions for your iPhone you can change the for accessible websites that will remove this option.
Go to Settings > General > Restrictions > Websites > Limit Adult Content.
That will stop Safari from offering Private Browsing, and allow you to filter content.
Please be advised that other web browsers won't be affected, so you might also want to consider removing any other web browser apps, like Chrome or Firefox, if they are installed. After they are removed you can also turn on Restrictions for Installing Apps.

Let me know if that helps.
