Your message is different, unique and needed. Yes, parental controls are important to many of us, however you remind us that we can't lose our main focus which should be communicating and connecting with our kids. You are the only tech speaker I am aware of that puts the majority of focus on that. It truly resonates with parents! Please don't stop!
