The Microsoft family controls app provides a whitelist... probably won't help if he's using his phone for porn.

So whitelist the known mac addresses and automatically block everything else or restrict everything else to his work websites.

Yeh thats one idea....

Hes not dull, I'll get "but I need to get to this website and its blocked. I want to look up stuff". Then he'll be on a mission to piss me off as much as possible.

yeh checked his history on his phone a few years ago too. Ewwww.

Is micro managing to that level really the answer?

Well.... I know you shouldnt have to do it with a 17 year old who, ultimately, can decide whether to stay in school or not.....

In the past, we've tried giving him as much space as possible. Many many times hes been caught out lying......

He literally has no concept that if he screws up his education he'll be working in McDs. All he thinks is "gaming or homework today". Its no contest.

Conscription in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia

National Service as peacetime conscription was formulated by the National Service Act 1948. From 1 January 1949, healthy males 17 to 21 years old were expected to serve in the armed forces for 18 months, and remain on the reserve list for four years.

Sorted.
