If you have (or had) to keep a child safe with a door-lock for controlled access while they are in their room, is there a clinical term or phrase for that? If I have to tell anyone, I want to make sure I'm not simply saying "We keep her locked in." There are too many abusive connotations for that, and I want to make sure I have a direct, objective and reasonable way to answer if Kiddo starts babbling about it.
