Sharon Standifird created an app called “Ignore No More” which allows parents to control their child’s phones if they believe that their kids are ignoring them.
The app takes away texting, all apps, and the ability to call/text friends. But it does allow 911 to be called and a select list of contacts that can be set by the parent.
All parents have to do after downloading the app and setting it up, is click on their child’s names, enter an unlock code, and click “lock (insert name here) phone.” Then wa-la, the child’s phone will go blank leaving them with only a list of approved contacts that they must call in order to receive the password to unlock their phone.
This way, the child won’t be bale to ignore their parents no matter how hard they try.
Currently the app is only available for Andriods and Google Play, but Standiford says that a version for the iPhone is in the works.
