Set up the PlayStation Network:

As an adult, you need to set up your own PlayStation Network

‘Master Account’ and register your children with a ‘Sub Account’.

Make sure you register each of your children with their correct

age so that automatic parental control settings are in place.

You are then in control of your children’s Sub Accounts and you

can change or put in place additional parental controls on them.

You can put in place different parental controls depending on your

children’s ages. If you have recently bought a PS4 but you have

already set up a PSN account for another PlayStation device, you

can use the same account. To check if you need to set up a new

account or not, read this helpful guide from PSN.

How to ﬁ nd parental control options on the PSN:

By registering your child’s Sub Account with their correct age,

parental control settings will automatically be in place. For example,

communication by text, voice or video is blocked for children and

content restriction settings will prevent your child accessing any

games, ﬁ lm, music and TV online which are not appropriate for

their age.

If you would like to adjust any of the parental controls available on

your child’s Sub Account, you need to:

» Sign into your Master Account.

» Go to Settings in the Function Area.

» Choose Parental Controls.

» Restrict use.

» Click on Sub Management to amend the parental controls

appropriate for your child.

You need to set a pass code to ensure your parental controls can’t

be changed. By default it is 0000 but it is recommended that you

change it. Do not share this pass code with your children or they will

be able to turn off the parental controls.

While looking at other parental controls available for the PSN,

consider whether these options would be helpful for

your family:

Prevent online chat and user-generated media: You can restrict

your child from sharing or viewing user-generated content (photos,

videos, drawing and other content) with other users. These controls

don’t prevent the use of PlayStation Network group messaging to

send and receive friend requests and game invites but they prevent

all text, voice and video chat and the ability to send and receive

photos and content from other users.

Spending limit: Automatic parental control settings for children

will prevent purchases being made. If you would like to put a

limit on your child’s spending, make sure you are logged onto the

Master Account. Go to Settings, Parental Controls, Sub Account

Management. Choose which account to restrict and then click

parental controls, under monthly spending limit, choose the

maximum dollar amount you’d like the Sub Account holder to be

able to use. This doesn’t fund the account, it sets a limit on how

much they can spend.

2. Select parental controls on the

console (eg. PS4 or PS Vita)

You can put in place settings on the console to control which

games and ﬁ lms can be accessed and also to restrict internet

access. The parental control settings on the console are not set

up automatically, so you will need to change the settings as

appropriate for your child.

How to ﬁ nd the parental controls on PS4

» Switch on PS4 and click on Settings from the Function Area.

» Select Parental Controls.

» Choose ‘restrict use of PS4 features’ and select those you think

are necessary.

» Change passcode (and do not share it with your children!)

You can also read PS4 parental control FAQs.

How to ﬁ nd parental controls on the PS Vita

» Go to Settings, click on Security and then Parental Controls and

ﬁ nd the Live Area screen for the Parental Control Application.

» Click on Features and restrict what you think is necessary.

These parental controls on both the PS4 and PS Vita are

especially helpful:

Restrict access to games based on age rating: To prevent your

child from accessing age-restricted games, you need to select the

appropriate rating in the parental controls settings. If you have

young children, you may want to change the default which is set at

level 9 which equates to content that is suitable for adults.

– Parental control level 9

– Parental control level 5

– Parental control level 2

– Parental control level 7

– Parental control level 3

If your child was 12, you would only want them to play games

that had a PEGI rating of 12 or under, therefore you would select

parental control level 5 on the PlayStation. More information

about Sony’s parental controls levels and age ratings can be

found on the FAQ section of the PSN parental control page.

» Restrict access to ﬁ lms based on age rating: To prevent your

child from accessing age-restricted ﬁ lms, you need to select the

appropriate age rating for DVDs (under DVD parental control) and

Blu-ray Discs (under Blue-ray discs parental control). It is a good

idea to select your country under BD/DVD Parental Control Region

code, as different countries have different age rating systems.

This is the relationship between the BBFC age rating for ﬁ lms and

the Playstation parental control levels:

– Parental control level 9

– Parental control level 5

– Parental control level 1

– Parental control level 7

– Parental control level 3

If your child was 15, you would only want them to watch ﬁ lms

that had a BBFC rating of 15 or under, therefore you would select

Parental Control level 6 on the Playstation.
