Separate the two questions

First ask who should be able to grant a permission. Then ask which permissions each installed app currently has. Write these as separate items on your setup checklist. A parent might reasonably change the approval arrangement and believe the work is finished, while an earlier microphone or location decision remains in place. Avoid describing the new setting to your child as a complete reset unless you have actually reviewed and changed the existing permissions too.

Review the apps used in ordinary life

Use Google’s current instructions for the supported device and account. Start with the apps the child actually uses, and look at the reason for each permission in relation to the feature they need. Make one change at a time and try the relevant feature afterward. Google notes that disabling permissions can affect how an app works. A denied permission that prevents a needed school recording is a troubleshooting question, not automatic evidence that the app is misbehaving or the child changed something.

Keep a small record of the decision

Note the app, device, permission, and practical reason for the choice without recording private content. If your child uses more than one device, verify each rather than assuming the result is identical everywhere. Explain what to do when a new request appears, such as pausing and asking an adult to review it. Revisit the permission when the family starts using a new feature. This guide concerns Google’s controls; PARE does not manage permissions in other installed applications.
