*eyeroll*

The bottom line is that if folks were willing to pay an appropriate
extra fee for an Internet access account whose PPPOE or equivalent
session terminated at the child-safety box instead of your other
equipment, you'd be all over it. But it *would* be an extra fee
because it costs more money to do that and it would be outrageous to
propose that folks who don't want or need that service subsidize its
cost.

A Houston startup called iExalt tried to do just that a little over 25
years ago with enhanced dialup service. Not enough parents ponied up
the cash. Unless parental attitudes have changed, that's where the
conversation stops: with dollars and sense.
