I see that, but I don't see how to password protect after I make it private
?

I want my son to have more access to the computer, but I want to keep certain things from him

If you make it private, he will not be able to access it without a password, when logged in with his account.


Are you creating a seperate account for him to use?

You can create a regular "user" account to solve this problem. That way you can keep him from certain folders AND prevent him from installing software, etc. etc.

Don't worry, if he's over 10 he's got more porn on there than you do.
Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it.
