Participating Child


What is a Participating Child

Someone that logs on to the system, belongs to one or more groups, has a Christmas List for themselves, but requires a parent because they are a minor. Items on their wish list will not be displayed until their parent approves them.

We'll call this a PARTICIPATING CHILD user.

What they can do

  • Have one or more parents assigned to them
  • Add gifts to their own list. Their gifts must be approved by a parent.
  • View gifts for users in their groups, but not the status (they might not be able to keep a secret)
  • Can comment on their own gifts (to answer questions or add information)
  • Receive emails regarding any comment on their own gift that is flagged that they can see

What they cannot do

  • Cannot add Suggestions for others
  • Cannot add Comments to others gifts
  • Cannot change the status of any gift
  • Cannot see the status of any gift (to make sure they don't spill the beans)
  • Cannot subscribe to a group to get email notifications
