A TikTok glitch allows teens to access the adults-only Shop tab even after setting up Family Pairing parental controls, causing them to view adult items on the platform.
Parents should be aware of potential exposure of teens to adult content like sex toys, lingerie, vape pens, and banned items on TikTok's Shop tab.
The issue arises when teens initially lie about being 18+, later pairing their account with parental controls, still retaining access to the Shop tab.
Despite Family Pairing setup, TikTok fails to restrict minors from the 18+ Shop tab, which can show adult products and items.
