Terminology ----------- The main terminology used in malcontent is ‘parental controls’, which are implemented by ‘administrators’ and enforced on ‘child users’. The feature applies to a range of other carer/caree relationships, though, where the ‘caree’ user might need to be protected from doing things on the computer which aren’t suitable for them. The terminology ‘parental controls’ is used consistently, despite not all situations actually involving a parent or child, because that’s how most users will find the functionality. To remain as inclusive as possible, there are some rules about which terminology to use: - Use ‘parental controls’ to refer to the overall feature - Refer to ‘administrators’ or ‘administrator accounts’ rather than ‘parents’ - Refer to ‘child users’ in general contexts, but refer to particular user accounts using their full name — don’t mention ‘child’ in that case Reference: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pwithnall/malcontent/-/issues/13
