I would call the carrier and see what they suggest. I know that iPhones do have the ability to be locked down by a parent a bit.... but via the carrier would probably be best.
Will recommend that to them, but guess that's only the internet side of things..? Anything to do with checking/monitoring messages etc?

A router or a proxy will do the job here. You need to gate the firewall here.

yes you can I used to be able to get full transcript when my son was younger we got transcripts of all texting, and internet access etc.

It works anytime that you can control it. WHen you can't control it, you can't control it.

Nahh I know what you mean, and yeah for sure, but the internet is more when he's out and about on data, rather than at home, so on data he won't go through the home fw etc

That's like trying to control what billboards he will look at. Can't do it.

Fair enough, think I'll see what various carriers say/can do like Minion Queen suggested and take it from there! Cheers guys

That's about the only option because they are the only ones that can have a universal firewall/proxy for that situation.

There are plenty of paid MDM solutions out there that will handle this.
