French etiquette simply would advise you not to answer.
If you want to answer to a person saying “merci” you can say also:
“Il n’y a pas de quoi” . It is friendly and can be slightly familiar but it’s informal and acceptable.
Would you raise your children like your parents raised you?
“Pas de problème” is common and sounds uneducated. It’s often used though.
“De rien” is not correct although it is often heard. Avoid it. It should be “Ce n’est rien”.
“ je t’en prie/ je vous en prie” .It is polite.
In the last 500 years, have there been civilizations whose cruelty matched that of Nazi Germany?
“c’est un plaisir” or “avec plaisir” “c’est mon plaisir” is polite.
