Parental controls are options, typically included in digital television services, computer and video games, or computer software used to access the Internet, that allows a parent to monitor or limit what a child can see or do and/or time-limit these activities. These controls may allow for the blocking of television stations using V-Chip technology, the removal of gore from computer games, the blocking of various websites, such as those containing pornography, or the automatic censoring of swearing.

| - Parental controls are options, typically included in digital television services, computer and video games, or computer software used to access the Internet, that allows a parent to monitor or limit what a child can see or do and/or time-limit these activities. These controls may allow for the blocking of television stations using V-Chip technology, the removal of gore from computer games, the blocking of various websites, such as those containing pornography, or the automatic censoring of swearing.
- The system enables guardians to set start and stop times for any day of the week. There are also a number of pre-set schedules, such as "weekends only" and "after school and weekends". The parental controls schedule is displayed on the parental controls page within the account management section of www.WorldofWarcraft.com. Every day of the week is broken up into 30-minute segments, and each segment can be set to "able to play" or "unable to play." Players cannot log in during a scheduled break, and if a player is already in the game when a scheduled break is set to begin, the game will automatically disconnect the player. In-game voice chat usage can also be managed via the parental controls system.
- This should not be confused with the far more valuable Simple Finder UI that was introduced in Mac OS 8.
