PROBLEMS WITH PARENTAL CONTROLS
AT&T has put a temporary hold on it’s new parental control service after discovering a problem with a it’s 911 calling feature.
The service was intended to allow limits to be set on your child’s phone. You could block certain number, limit the phone’s data functionality or even limiting the hours of the day when the phone could be used. However, then a user called 911 during a blocked time, if the call somehow get’s disconnected the 911 operator could not call the number back.
Hopefully, this problem will be resolved and the service will once again be available to interested parents.
