If your kids are smart enough to switch to a neighbours all-access Wifi probably smart enough (or give them a little time) to bypass your controls - that is if the intention is there.

China takes the very same care for it's entire population.
Sad.

I do not think it is necessary to present links here that I would not recommend for 15 year old children.
Comparison of restrictions what China is doing with the citizens and what I try to secure my children is something very strange!
I have maybe the possibility to do the best for my children, but very sorry, I have no influence to chinese gov.

Yes, China's leaders don't trust strangers, whereas you don't trust your own children.
15 years old: likely savvy enough to get around a nanny net filtering if he really wants to - sometimes the reason may be just because you are treating him like a juvenile.
You're a father with kids well old enough to reason with. You need to grow up and talk to them.

Even if it's wide open, you're still accessing a network you're not authorized to subsequently modify for your own purposes, no matter how well-intended those might be. That's not even a gray area if you ask me.

If the kids are using a Windows computer, log in as administrator and assign static IP's to your router. Don't give them the admin password. Use something besides 192.168.1.XXX for LAN.
We always use static IP's, for security purposes.

But how I can stop them to Access the unsecured net? I mean also by the mobiles? I think I have no Chance, unless I stop the unsecure net...
Grateful for all helpful hints

Update the HOSTS file with the addresses on the unsecured network, probably 192.168.1.n ...and don't forget to change your local addresses to something else first via DHCP control on your router/hub.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Yes, everything done. But the children (not only mine ... as far as I know  ) can Access this unsecured net by phone.

Care to guess who just repartitioned and formatted the wrong disk in the WookieTab?
Oh .... bother ....
Care to guess which of my devices isn't backed up (because AOMEI doesn't support eMMC disks)? 
Downloading Win10 ... 
And then Visual Studio, and Paintshop Pro X9, and LibreOffice, and ...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Is this the IT version of Cluedo?
Was it Griff, with a shell command, in the living room?
Nope.
Alright, then was it Griff, with WookieTab, in the living room?
We have a winner!

Very close, but it was A.N.Idiot in MyOffice, with the Partition Manager who murdered the WookieTab.
I've gone right off Cluedo ...

Did it give a nice warning before you confirmed the action, like FDISK does?

Oh yes.
It even explains exactly what it is going to do, and requires you to say "OK" and then separately find and press the "Apply" button before it does anything.
Then you look at the result, and realise the wrong disk now has nothing at all on it...

The only thing worse would be doing that to a neighbour's computer.
I came close to doing exactly that a few months ago. I cloned his disk with CloneZilla (first time I used it) before doing a serious OS upgrade from Vista, so basically not upgradable to anything recent. Explaining to him that it's better to be safe than sorry, I wanted to step through this in an extra careful manner so he didn't lose anything during the rebuild process (he didn't have anything backed up).
CloneZilla did a rather poor job of identifying the source and destination drives, as they were the same brand and model (or it could be some other property(ies) it used as an identifier, I can't recall the details). Had to double- and triple-check everything, but there were still some white-knuckle moments...

There is one thing even worse than that: Doing it to your wife's (or girlfriend's) computer.

The first time I installed a second drive in a PC (early 90s) I hadn't known to set the jumper to make the new disk secondary on the bus.
This confused the format utility, but it soldiered on nonetheless.

You should have just waited for the next W10 update. That would have FIFY. Should be another along any minute now.

I've been without power before up to a week. No big deal besides lack of entertainment. But wow, just went without water for 24 hours. That was a nightmare. Can't shower, clean your hands, cook a HUGE number of dishes, or drink anything but soda for the most part. Really puts modern convenience in perspective. Also showcases why living near water sources has been the de facto standard for most of human civilization. Anyone else?
EDIT: For those curious, a water main exploded in my town (literally) taking the entire intersection with it. Luckily even though they predicted a 3-4 day lack of water, they managed to replace the water main in a day. I would kiss every worker that contributed to that if I could.

On one level it sucks, but on another it's great. Down in the south we'd get hurricanes that could put the city out of commission for a week at a time as well. No power, water, etc..
Sure, it was hot and sticky with no AC. And DARK! I mean no street lights... anything... at night. And you lived on Vienna sausage and pissed outside. But you know what else happened? During one such hurricane endured for a week... the person I was in a relationship with at the time... we talked to each other a lot more. We read books together. And just enjoyed each other's company.
I'm not saying you can't do this with power. But it's nice to remember where we came from and what life was like before the modern hubbub. If for no other reason, than to better appreciate where we are at in humanity.
