DW: But when I do it I'm scolded for being creepy and "on other people's property."
At your wits’ end with your kids? Time to call in the demons. A parenting app called Oni kara Denwa, or "Phone Call from a Demon" has been developed by Tokyo-based Media Active to assist parents in managing their children's behavior. The app simulates a phone call from a demon character, aiming to encourage children to behave appropriately. The app’s latest update features Japanese comedian Kintalo and offers five different themed messages.
The messages are directed at children who don’t listen to their parents, refuse to go to bed, who won’t eat their food, who fight with their siblings, or don’t keep their promises. The messages come in the form of an incoming call to make it more believable to the kids.
