I have it in my family computer because I let my kids watch certain shows.
The problem is that with a click or a button they can exit the kids shows and enter my account and watch inappropriate things.
Same problem with amazon and Hulu...
Is there a way to have a special account just for the shows that you allow?
I am endlessly worried about my kids watching what they shouldn’t be.
Any ideas? What do you do about this issue?

I have the age setting on the lowest one any show that isn't appropriate for all ages requires a pin which my kids don't know.

You click on 'account' and then 'parental controls'
There you can choose the controle level and set your pin.
It'll mean that every time you want to watch something more mature you'll have to put in your pin but it's well worth it.

I set my Netflix account so every single show requires a PIN. It basically means that it’s completely off limits to my kids, unless I want them watching.

I assume you mean Amazon streaming, not the app. I don’t have access to either of those myself.

K figured it out I’m very happy
But now here’s my next question-
Is there a way to set up an account for the kids that has only Netflix and no ability to browse anything else?

You can set up the Netflix app on a device and then totally delete web browsers from it.
