I am setting up a mac mini for someone.

Its a mix of parents and children; with a lot of guests coming to the house.

Setting up multiple accounts went OK, dealing with the guest account has been a nightmare.

I am trying to "lock the dock" in the parental setting, but each time I logoff and re-login, suddenly all the apps are in the dock again after I just set it up for the 10th time.

I am trying to limit the apps to basic browsing and apps that don't rely on iCloud settings, I am sure am doing something wrong, just have no idea what it is.

Should I be logged off when I attempt to set the parental controls?

If I am logged off, how do i set the dock to what apps i want in it?

Since the guest account gets reset every time you log out, is it even possible to set up a default "dock" for it?
