Hey LauraBetrayed34, it sounds like you’re on the right track wanting to keep things safe but simple. Telegram’s own settings are pretty basic and easy for kids to change, so they’re good for a start but not foolproof. Third-party apps like mSpy get more detailed but can be tricky to set up and might feel invasive. Honestly, the easiest and most comfortable way for most parents is to use the built-in parental controls on your kid’s phone (like Screen Time on iPhone or Family Link on Android) to limit app use overall. Pair that with open chats about online safety, and you’ll have a better shot at staying in the loop without drowning in notifications or confusing dashboards. Just keep it straightforward and transparent!
