Change second administrator to standard without their password - iMac

Child has made himself an administrator and won't give his password - how do I change his account? I need to put parental controls in.



Thanks

If you are the primary administrator, open System Preferences > Users & Groups, click the padlock to unlock, select his account, uncheck "Allow user to administer this computer" which will change the account to Standard and restart your Mac.
