"Dear OpenAI Team,I propose the introduction of a parent-controlled account system within ChatGPT. This system would allow parents to create and manage sub-accounts for their children, offering a balance between independent learning and parental oversight. Such a feature would ensure children use ChatGPT in an educational and safe manner, while preventing misuse, such as using the AI for inappropriate activities or to complete homework assignments without proper learning. This could be a valuable tool for modern digital parenting, encouraging responsible use of AI technology in education.Do you have plans to implement such a feature in the future?Thank you for considering my suggestion.Best regards, Sigmar

Hi and welcome to the community!
This is an interesting idea! I would love to see some feedback from others about this idea.
One challenge I see with this idea is that your regular boss would also love to see inside in your account, just because.
I wonder how this conflict of interest could be solved in a clever way.
I think the first point that allows a distinction would be the age of the account you are creating. If you create an account for someone younger than 18, parental control could be enabled by default.
I would debate more about the features that you want to have as parental control.
Beside the usual suspects (porn, gambling,…) I think a nice feature would be (with the release of gpt4O) is that chat GPT should NOT give answers immediately but guide the kid through the learning curve (like a real teacher).
Finally the goal is not to serve the solution but help the kid to develop the thought process to get there by himself.
A good parental feature would be: don’t give the answer to a problem before 4-5-6-X prompts.
I hope I was clear 
What could be also cool is that the kid could inject a page and the AI would generate questions based on the text. Something that would help the kid to review for a coming class test.
