I am a parent. It's difficult at times to balance freedom and regulation. Do the best you can, and remember balance is key. Early years (2-7yo) was highly regulated, but gave more freedom at older ages (7+ yo).
For rewards, we use the star/chart system, works well!
Define some chores, each chore got a star sticky. After 10 stars, gets a toy or Roblox bucks. Roblox is pretty good at teaching lessons in money management, spend it all or slowly save up. Never allow them to buy without a parent. Do not save that CC info online! Same with iPad and other devices, lock down all payments!
Video watching is more open now that they are at a later age, but I had to put my foot down on Jo Jo's Bizarre Adventure recently, lol, maybe when they're older. I used to regulate the YouTube to ONLY certain channels that don't swear, like Zack Scott, who is great, BTW.
