Hello,

I'm a 44 year old dad of a 13 year old with musical talent, but also a body image problem.  I'm creating an account that will be monitored and supervised to hopefully eliminate sexualized content.

I'd like to explore playlists and curated modes so that I can set up the account with algorithms in place for the account that will facilitate this.  I want to give my kid the ability to have a music app and perhaps even access it via Alexa and have unrestricted access to those playlists.

thanks for any assistance.
