***It only acts on devices that have midess software installed.*** The Parental Interaction system has been designed to prevent parents losing control over their children's devices, and in this way creating a new model of digital coexistence in the home, in keeping with 21st century trends and the new patterns of digital natives. It enables the participation of parents in the vital aspect of supervision and safety of their children. It is important to emphasise that this function, configurable by the parents from their own telephone, will be activated by the educational centre only for the students that it needs/wishes to monitor. In addition, the Parental Interaction includes the innovative PLEASE LISTEN! function, which allows parents to block their child's devices for a limited time, to perform a specific task (dinner, bathing, brushing teeth, etc.), or simply to have a conversation with them.
