To Enable YouTube Safety Mode:
1. Log in to your Google or Youtube account.
2. Go to the YouTube.com site in your web browser.
3. Click on the "Safety" button near the bottom of the YouTube homepage.
4. Click the "On" button. If you receive a message after clicking the on button that says "You can lock the Safety Mode setting after you sign in" then you are not logged into Google / YouTube. Click the "sign in" link if needed.
5. Check the box that says "Lock safety mode on this browser".
6. Click the "Save" button.
After you've clicked the save button, the page you were on will reload and you will see a banner near the top of the page that shows a check mark with the words "Successfully enabled Safety Mode" next to it.
7. IMPORTANT!! In order to prevent your child from just turning safety mode off, you must log out of your Google / YouTube account by clicking your username link in the top right-hand corner of the browser window. This will effectively lock the setting in for the browser you are using, preventing your child from disabling Safety Mode. You will need to repeat this process for all other web browsers that are on your computer (i.e. Firefox, Safari, etc).
