<div dir="ltr">Hi Ryan,<div>We have a features process [1] to try get consensus before start to work,</div><div>and avoid the risk of expending time and effort in features not accepted by the community.</div><div>Parental controls are a controversial topic, and go against all the philosophy of Sugar.</div>
<div>In the end, to have a completely "sure" experience, you need to remove more and more possibilities,</div><div>and practically is not the right solution.</div><div>You can't stop children going to porn sites if they want, creating a blaklist one by one in the xos.</div>
<div>You will add <a href="http://playboy.com">playboy.com</a> and there are a million of sites more to go.</div><div>I think will be very difficult we accept this feature, but I hope that do not stop you contributing.</div>
<div>In the future, please share your ideas, follow the schedule, and write your feature page[2].</div><div>This is not something arbitrary, you can see other features developed in 0.102 [3]</div><div>Regards, </div><div>
