Of course there will be; so the answer (or at least a better solution) is .... drumroll..... education and parental responsibility.

And it’s education for both parents and children, parents need to explain to their children, that ‘yes, we’ll put some blocks in place, but I know they aren’t perfect and you’ll probably find stuff which disturbs you, or you are not sure about - in which case come and show me or your Mum, and I promise you that you are not in any sort of trouble and we will explain things to you!’

I think that the basic problem is that too many parents simply want to abrogate their responsibilities and want to hand them off to the government/ISP.

Don’t ever try to provide a technological solution to what is actually a parental problem.
