An App Lock?

How do I lock certain apps on my iPhone?
Wanna restrict certain violent or R-18 apps from being accessed by my kids.
For any suggestions, appreciate!

It may be possible with a Jailbroke iPhone, I have no experience with jailbraking. The only installed apps you can restrict on the iPhone are the ones included with iOS. Settings/General/Restrictions will also allow you to restrict purchases from the App and iTunes Stores, but once third party apps are on the iPhone they can not be restricted.

That is my problem because I’ve got 3rd party apps installed on my iPhone and those were the ones I wanna restrict. Hmmm. Well, thanks for the response!
