parental controls
1
a feature provided in some digital devices (cellphones, television, etc.) that allows parents to have control over their children's access to unwanted content
Parental controls are settings or tools that allow parents to manage and limit the type of content their children can access on television, radio, or the Internet. These controls help restrict certain programs, channels, or websites based on factors such as age appropriateness or content ratings. They can be used to block violent, explicit, or inappropriate content, and often include features like time limits or password protection to prevent children from accessing restricted material. Parental controls help ensure a safer viewing or online experience for younger audiences.
