Blocking outgoing calls

Hi Community, is there a way to block an outgoing call made from your teenager? For example, if he called a certain number it would not work. Thanks,

The recipient is usually the one that blocks calls. But they can leave voicemail.

One way that I know of what be to get a specialized device that only allows phone calls to specific pre-programmed phone numbers. Howver, those types of devices are usually aimed to suit the needs of much younger children. To prevent someone from simply taking the SIM card out and putting into another device, the PIN card prompt for whenever the SIM is inserted into a different phone option would need to be enabled.
