"Discord Enhances Parental Controls to Ensure Teen Safety and Privacy"

Discord is launching a new tool called Family Center, which allows parents to monitor their teenagers' activities on the platform. Teens have the option to opt in and grant their parents access to information such as recently added friends, joined servers, and messages or calls in DMs or group DMs. However, parents will not be able to see the content of their teen's conversations. To connect to their teen's account, parents need a special QR code, promoting a conversation about online activities. This move follows other companies, like Epic Games, introducing features that encourage discussions between parents and children about online behavior.
