You didn't mention Encryption with real password. When you encrypt your phone with the inbuilt Encryption feature, it protects both your phone and the external sd card.

If your phone doesn't have embedded encryption feature, there are good encryption apps in google play store.

When your phone is stolen, the thief can't assess content of your phone or sd card. No amount of hacking can be successful as long as the password is strong.

Using only pin without encryption is hackable. So be warned!

For parental control I suggest that you uses some solutions like those from http://www.familoop.com website. They are created for parental control of Internet and apps on different devices. I guess, you will find it helpful
