Product design question

You are a new PM at Google. Design a wearable for children.

Practice this question out loud. An AI interviewer asks it, follows up like a real interviewer would, and scores your answer. Type or speak.

What this question tests

Tests product design for a highly regulated, safety-sensitive segment where the parent is the real decision-maker and buyer.

Design around the dual-user model: the child wears and uses it, the parent buys, configures and monitors it.
Identify pain points: parents want location safety and limited communication without full smartphone and social media exposure at a young age.
Propose a wearable with GPS location sharing, an SOS button, and voice or preset-message calling limited to an approved contact list, no open internet or app store.
Address the real regulatory constraint directly: COPPA compliance and minimal data collection, given Google's past scrutiny in kids' products.
Define success as parent-reported peace of mind via survey, daily location-check usage, and low support-ticket volume around privacy concerns.

Explicitly designs around the two-user reality, child wears it, parent controls it, rather than treating this like a normal consumer wearable.
Names COPPA and Google's real regulatory history as a design constraint, not an afterthought.
Deliberately limits scope, no open internet or app store, correctly reading the safety-first intent of this product.

Designing a smartwatch with open internet or social features that ignores the safety-first intent of this product.
Not addressing COPPA or data-privacy compliance at all, a serious gap for a kids' product at Google.

How would you handle the data-privacy requirements for a product marketed to children?
What age range would you target, and how would that change the feature set?
