    Use the forbidden fruit or caged reward method to teach.

    Start with something like (assuming they have have a low tier phone) giving them a Google Pixel, but with the stock ROM erased, as a random day gift (not birthday or such).

    When they ask why it won’t turn on right, tell them it’s because it needs a ROM to be installed to be used. When they ask what that is, open up Wikipedia for them, along with the GrapheneOS instructions.

    You can do it with other stuff too, like “no wifi at home past 7pm”, but give them a router that needs something installed to run and say “but if you setup this and plug it in to the internet, it’ll be your own wifi you can use at all times” and so on.
