I love what Kodi has to offer but am disappointed to find a lack of controlling what is seen (parental control). As an example last week I added a new add-on that gave over 300 tv channels only to find a cartoons playing right above 8 ADULT xxx channels. I find this careless and irresponsible of the add-on developer and am disappointed that it had to be removed.. Things like this will limit any adult with children from ever being a Kodi user or donator. The use of profiles is cumbersome and too much of a hassle to be considered a viable solution as I have pre teens (G) teens (PG13) and young adults ® as well as Adults (x). The only two parental controls that have been created for Kodi so far are not the answer either. One being Add-on based and the other having a ceiling of pg-13 offering little control. A good parental control should have multiple user ratings with the ability to simply right click on an add-on or channel and restrict it as necessary. I would encourage someone to develop such a parental control and am sure appreciating parents would gladly make contributions to them for their efforts. Please... won't someone help those of us who are responsible parents? We love Kodi but could love it a bit more.
