📋 Plain English: Use LittlePath for Montessori-inspired parenting support. It's not a medical service. Don't misuse it. We built it in good faith — please use it that way.
1. Acceptance of terms
By downloading or using LittlePath, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the app. These terms apply to all users of LittlePath on iOS.

2. Who can use LittlePath
LittlePath is intended for use by parents, guardians, and caregivers of young children. You must be at least 18 years old to use the app. By creating a child profile, you confirm that you are the parent or legal guardian of that child, or have appropriate authorization to manage their information.
The app is designed to be operated by adults on behalf of children — it is not intended for direct use by children under 13.
3. Not a medical service
⚠️ LittlePath is not a medical or clinical service. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment of any kind. Behavior scripts, activity recommendations, and AI-generated content are for general informational and educational purposes only.
The content in LittlePath is not a substitute for:
- Medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment
- Psychological or behavioral therapy
- Consultation with a pediatrician, child psychologist, therapist, or other qualified professional
If your child is experiencing significant behavioral, developmental, emotional, or health challenges, please consult a qualified professional. LittlePath is a supportive tool, not a clinical intervention.
4. AI-generated content
LittlePath uses Anthropic's Claude AI to generate personalized behavior scripts and activity step adaptations. AI-generated content:

We make no warranties about the accuracy or fitness of AI-generated content for any particular purpose. You use it at your own discretion.
