A father's fear for his daughters regarding the dangers of phones is valid. He must educate them on faith and the consciousness of God, guide them to use phones for beneficial purposes, be a good role model for them, and frequently supplicate for them. As for TV series that contain objectionable material, he is not permitted to allow their viewing.
