Ask HN: Is there a good way to force headphone use on tablets?

I want to superglue into all my kid's ipad's headphone jacks one of these:

https://www.amazon.com/Headphone-Splitter-Syncwire-Nylon-Braided-Stereo/dp/B07431YDWM/

"Headphone Splitter 3.5mm, Audio Splitter 2 Female to 1 Male, Dual Headphone Adapter"

But everytime I try the superglue doesn't hold up and the kids are able to unplug it and get volume coming out of their tablets. I'm looking for a way to make it absolutely impossible for them to use their device without headphones. Anyone achieve this with some special type of super glue?
