Sure, and for ad-revenue driven companies like Google and Meta having good parental controls actually harms their business instead of improving on it. The incentives are all wrong.
That, and parents only have kids of the age that this is of relevance for, for maybe 4, 5, 6 years. So you're targeting a feature not only for a small segment, but one that is transient.
And if you screw it up, there's all sorts of potential for liability. You have to be careful about what you promise, etc. etc.
All the more reason why the answer probably comes down to: gov't regulation instead of expecting them to do this voluntarily.
