Parental supervision refers to the act of overseeing and monitoring a child's behavior, activities or actions by their parents. It involves keeping an eye on what the child is doing, where they are going, who they are with, and making sure that they follow rules and guidelines set by their parents for their safety and well-being. Parental supervision can take place in various settings such as at home, during outdoor activities or when the child is using electronic devices. The level of supervision may vary depending on the age and maturity of the child, but it generally aims to provide guidance, protection and boundaries for the child's development.
