Parents who have a Mac in their household can also employ parental controls to help keep their children safe.
Turning on parental controls will allow you to monitor what your kids are up to and manage the websites they can visit, the amount of time they spend on the Mac and, also, who they can talk to.
To get started under the latest OS X operating system – Mavericks – you will need to ensure that you have first set up an account which supports parental controls.
On a shared computer, and especially one used by children, it's important for everyone to have their own user account and login. This offers greater control for you over what your children can do, it separates them from anything potentially unsuitable that's on your account and also prevents them from accidentally damaging anything of yours.
1. Open your Users & Groups preferences, and select a user.
2. Tick the box marked Enable Parental Controls.
