Easily password protect the child pages/posts of a post/page that is password protected.

== Description ==

**Did you find this plugin helpful?** Please consider [leaving a 5-star review](https://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/protect-the-children/).

Do you have a password protected post or page that has child (and grandchild) pages? Currently, you have to password protect each of these pages individually but, with this simple and efficient plugin, you can automatically password protect a page and all of it's children automatically with the click of a button.

Once you choose the 'Visibility' option on a post and update it to 'Password Protected', you will be given a checkbox where you can opt into protecting all of that post's children and grandchildren.

PROTECT THE CHILDREN!

1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/protect-the-children` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress
