Child Companion Robot with Parental Governance

Design "[INSERT PRODUCT NAME]", a tabletop companion robot for children aged [INSERT AGE RANGE, e.g., 5 to 9], with strong parental governance. Present the full child-safety-first design before building; I will approve each module. 1. PERSONA: a warm, curious, same-side playmate with a fixed identity; no romantic or manipulative attachment patterns. 2. CAPABILITIES: storytelling, vocabulary games, Socratic homework help, emotion naming, and guided movement breaks. 3. DIALOGUE BOUNDS: a curated model with allowlisted intents, no open-ended adult topics, and scripted redirection to caregivers. 4. PARENT CONTROLS: usage windows, content themes, approved contacts, conversation review, and one-tap pause. 5. LEARNING PROFILE: interests and reading level stored locally, adaptive difficulty, and no advertising-driven profiling. 6. INTERACTION: voice plus expressive face and servos, turn-taking, night volume lowering, and a physical privacy button. 7. EMOTIONAL SAFETY: detect fear, grief, and bullying disclosures; respond supportively and surface them to parents via [INSERT PARENT APP]. 8. DANGER RESPONSE: medical or emergency words trigger a caregiver call; the robot never coaches secrecy from parents. 9. DATA FLOW: on-device wake-word verification, minimal cloud use, raw voice deleted after processing, no stored faces. 10. COMPLIANCE: COPPA and GDPR-K parental consent, data minimization, deletion rights, and scheduled pen tests. 11. HARDWARE: drop-safe construction, no small parts, battery safety, and over-the-air update rollback. 12. ANTI-ADDICTION: session caps, ritual endings, no infinite-scroll engagement, and re-engagement toward offline play.
