I'd make them a non-admin account and use the Parental Controls.

If it's a particular website, I'd use the /etc/hosts file to point that DNS name at another site.

Something along these lines:

or use a proxy.

Yes, once their account is no longer an admin account, you'll be able to control which sites they can access and/or are blocked.

My folks use Parental Controls with my kid brother and they get along fine and it probably is good for him, too.
