Abstract

Systems and methods for presenting user-selectable options for parental control in response to detecting a triggering action by a user are disclosed. A system generates for output a first content item on a device. The system identifies a first user and a second user in proximity to the device and determines that a first gesture is performed by the first user wherein the first gesture is covering the eyes of the second user. In response to determining that the first gesture is performed, the system presents a selectable option for a user input such as (a) skipping a portion of the first content item; (b) lowering the volume; (c) removing the video of the first content item; or (d) presenting a second content item instead of presenting the first content item. In response to receiving a user input selecting the selectable option, the system performs an action corresponding to the selectable option.
