Dec 28, 2015 1:37 PM in response to Jonathanairby pinkstones,Giving someone administrator access means giving them complete and total access to everything on your computer, including the ability to install and remove software. I wouldn't give a child that kind of access to a computer, no way no how.

Dec 28, 2015 1:47 PM in response to Jonathanairby Cmoore01,My question would be, what issue or situation are you trying to solve by making this user (regardless of age) an administrator? In my support at work, and at home, I restrict who has access to Admin rights, to save myself a load of headaches. What are you trying to accomplish by elevating rights for this user? Having said that, I agree with Linc and pinkstones, don't do it.
