Children are either not allowed to have devices, or they have them but locked down with parental controls (hopefully).
Apple could easily have a separate mode for this. Maybe there's some overlap with lockdown mode where it can be bundled together. There is no reason to force it on everyone except to benefit Apple.

How many children have you met lately?
Who is at fault for allowing children unlimited access to their devices? Their caregivers or Apple?
Society as a whole, to some extent, and the various industries involved.
Why should children be punished with a lifetime of shitty ingrained behaviors just because they were born to shitty parents who wouldn't do the right thing? I'd rather not create the Eloi and Morlocks from HG Wells.
