That's why I don't monitor it. If I don't trust my kids on a site, I ban it so they get no access to it whatsoever. If I trust them, I don't have any restrictions on the content they can access on it.
For example, I trust Netflix's kids mode, but my kids can easily switch to my profile and see stuff they shouldn't. I trust them to only watch on their profile, and if they violate that, they lose access to Netflix entirely. Adult content doesn't appear on their home page, and it doesn't even appear on my home page (as in, the trailers usually don't have the intense parts).
I feel like if I restrict it, they'll be more curious about what they're missing, whereas teaching them to avoid stuff in their own teaches discipline and builds trust
