Abstract
A method for managing parental controls may include enabling real-time collaboration between a child and a guardian of the child to manage one or more parental control policies by 1) initiating a collaborative parental-control-management session between the child and the guardian, 2) during the collaborative parental-control-management session, recording actions the child performs on a first computing system, 3) as the child performs the actions, streaming a representation of the actions of the child to a second computing system, 4) using the representation of the actions of the child to enable, at the second computing system, a guardian of the child to view the actions of the child as the actions occur, and 5) during the collaborative parental-control-management session, modifying the one or more parental controls. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
