Why We Created United Party Line
The moment that changed everything
Like many parents, I thought I was doing everything right. I monitored screen time, used parental controls, and taught my son about online safety. But what I didn't anticipate was how sophisticated online predators had become.
It started innocently enough, a gaming platform where kids could chat while playing. My son, who was 12 at the time, seemed happy making new friends. But over several months, one "friend" began grooming him, slowly building trust and manipulating him into increasingly inappropriate conversations.
When I discovered what was happening, I was devastated. The guilt was overwhelming. How had I missed this? How could this happen under my own roof, while I was trying so hard to protect him?
That moment changed me forever. I realized that simply restricting access wasn't enough. Kids need safe spaces to connect, socialize, and build friendships, but those spaces must be fundamentally designed with their protection in mind.
United Party Line was born from this experience. It's my commitment to every parent who shares this fear, and to every child who deserves to explore the digital world without becoming a victim. This isn't just a business. It's a mission to ensure no other family goes through what we did.

Behind every number is a child who deserves protection, a family facing unimaginable pain, and a preventable tragedy. United Party Line exists because these statistics are unacceptable, and because we believe technology can be used to protect rather than endanger our children.
How United Party Line is different
Every feature is built with parents in control. You decide who your children can talk to, when they can access the platform, and what conversations are appropriate. We're not a platform that happens to have parental controls. We're a parental control system that happens to enable conversations.
Parents have full visibility into their children's conversations. You can review chat histories, set time limits, and decide which lines your kids can access. The power to monitor and protect is in your hands, not ours.
One strike and you're out. We don't give second chances to predators or bullies. Any violation of our community standards results in immediate removal and permanent bans, with serious cases reported to law enforcement.
We provide parents with detailed activity reports, conversation summaries, and direct access to our safety team. You're never alone in protecting your children. We're your partner in this mission.
Every family that joins United Party Line makes the internet a little safer. Together, we're creating the protected spaces our children deserve.
"The only way to make the internet safe for our children is to design platforms with their safety as the foundation, not an afterthought."
