How have you set up parental controls?
What did you use to do it? An app? Browser? Desktop genie?
How did your son discover the passwords you are using?
We'll need more information before anyone begin to work out what is going on.
Reads to me like clever kid has either took-over the control on Circle, has disabled Circle, or add some exclusion for his device(s). Still unclear.
Honestly, this isn't a tech issue this is a parenting issue.
Tell him to restore your access or you're going to wipe his device(s) and no Internet access for a week/month/year whatever.
Go for the jugular. No mercy.
Then again he's probably using a VPN, maybe.
