There are always stories of people installing Linux on their parents computer to provide them a more secure and stable operating system, seems interesting to share experiences.

Edit: I'm assuming that parents are okay with the changes, or do not care. Obviously do not force anyone to switch OS if they don't want to.

you are signing yourself up for more computer responsibilities

As I said in the comment above, if you are already completely responsible for the management of their computers, that doesn't change much, right?
