Personally, as a parent, the only time I told one of my children that they shouldn't read something was when I wanted to make sure that they read it. I always figured that if they *could* read it, then they should be allowed to.
Are you going to tell Kids they cannot have access to the WiFi? That would mean you cannot give them the password at all. Kids are pretty resourceful. Parents, not so much. If the access to the router is the default, kids can get in and get the passwords. They could get in and change things to spite the parents. You can get the WiFi password in other ways. Also, they don't have to just connect to WiFi at home. They could do so outside of home.

So if you have any books connected to your account that you don't want your kids reading, then connecting to your account is not a good idea.
