Abstract:
Systems and methods for controlling permissions to change parental control settings based on vocal characteristics of a user. In some aspects, the media guidance application may receive a voice command from a user to update a parental control setting. The media guidance application may determine both what the requested change is and an age (or age range) of the user is who is attempting to change the parental control setting based on vocal characteristics of the voice command. If the media guidance application determines that an age range associated with the user exceeds an age associated with the requested change to the parental control setting, the media guidance application may update the parental control setting at a media device based on the requested change. Accordingly, the media guidance application may allow only users of appropriate ages to change parental control settings at the media device.

Claim (Index 60):
The method of  claim 52 , further comprising:\n in response to determining that the age range of the user does not exceed the age required to update the parental control setting at the media device, maintaining the parental control level at the media device; notifying the user that the parental control setting will be maintained; receiving an audio input of a second user authorized to change the parental control setting to the first parental control level on the media device; processing the audio input of the second user to determine that the audio input of the second user includes an instruction affirming the first parental control instruction; and in response to determining that the audio input of the second user includes the instruction affirming the first parental control instruction, updating the parental control setting at the media device to the first parental control level.
