My 11/yo has the same pump. Control IQ is great...but it takes a cautious approach to adjustments of insulin delivery given that it can only lower blood glucose levels and not raise them. Hopefully dual-hormone pumps will come out in the next few years and the algorithms can be more aggressive.
In the end, our 11 year old ignores his pump much of the time. We have a bunch of SugarPixels around the house, so if his sugar is way off we know and can address it ASAP.
