No, parents should educate their kids about the dangers of taking and sharing nude photos, and create trust so that if the kids do something stupid, they can go to their parents for help.
Why be a good parent when you can break their trust by invading their privacy instead!?
Snooping is one thing Setting a responsible relationship with your kids, and your hardware is another.
"You can have this phone, but every once and a while I am going to review it. You are sharing my device here, and it's my responsibility you are safe. Over time, as you get older, we will do this less and less. I'll never surprise you unless you demonstrate there's an imminent risk".
