Parental Controls in iTunes

As you know, Apple has designated music in iTunes with and without Explicit listings.
Of course, if a child knows his way around iTunes, it wouldn't be hard to get music his mother might not consider appropriate.

This article from the Paducah Sun talks about how to restrict music, TV shows and movies based on their ratings.

Of course, once one has a registered account, all they need is the account password to download content and charge the cost to the credit card.

In iTunes, people can filter by categories, music labeled as explicit, film ratings and even TV ratings. Users can even lock others from changing established filtering options once they are established with a password.

To see how to do that read the article here.here.
