Steam family sharing parental (cousinental actually) controls?

[mistersprinkles]

I'd like to set up Steam Family Sharing so that my little cousins, aged 9 and 7, can use my steam library at their house. However, as much of my library involves murdering nazis, zombies, and various creatures, I was wondering about parental controls. Is there a way to set it up through steam so that I can decide what games I want to share with them? Could I also set up a password so that their parents can play those games but the kids can't if they don't have the password? I was looking through Steam and could not figure this out for myself

THX!

I think, if you log in on your account on their pc, download the games you want them to play and then log back in on their account the games will appear in their library until they are uninstalled.

Might be an easier solution .

Steam handles this quite well, if you set up family sharing you can authorise certain games to be available in family mode and to access your full library you enter a pin. This works also on things like the steam app on your phone

Been a while since I set this up for my son. Seem to remember it being tricky or not straight forward to set up but worked OK once done. Does it still kick them out of their game if you fire up a different steam game? It certainly used to which I thought a bit pants at the time, had assumed I could lend any game I wasn't currently playing not lend access to the library.

Interesting didn't know that you can restrict certain games but in all honesty its probably better to buy them the games then going through all the trouble.
