This is of course the reason that technology can never completely replace parenting, and why we recommend that all our customers talk about Internet Safety as a family before installing our filters. What Nailo describes is basically a "nuclear option" which would wipe out all apps downloaded on the iPhone, and is more a problem with Apple's implementation of parental controls as it affects all settings as well. This is a perfect example of why good parenting must accompany good technology. Neither work very well on their own. Periodically check your kids iPhone to make sure that they haven't reformatted.

Therefore, you must prohibit access to iTunes on the computer itself, which poses problems, since it removes that main syncing option for the iPhone.
