Will 10yo’s actually value separate channels? Or will OP’s daughter just end up being the “other weird kid on the weird app we dont like”. I know nothing about 10yo’s though, maybe I am wrong.
Comment on Anyone know of a FOSS type kids messenger?

One upside - the kids will learn this, and also the value of separate communication channels.
I’d I could get my family to switch to anything other than SMS I’d be happy.

the better question is, will 10 year old even use the separate channel, or are they just going to set up a fake/hidden account like every other child out there when given a restriction.

I kind of meant as they go. At some point it’ll make sense to them.
