Its not your job to stop people looking at porn when kiddies are around.
I mean you are giving them wifi, their phone already has a data connection.

For ones I have done I tell them that their usage will be monitored and 
recorded and handed over to the police should the need arise and they 
sign a bit of paper accepting this when they are given a time limited 
key to the wifi.
