Try this:
Go to Administrative Tools/ Services/right click Bitdefender Parental Control (see middle image)/right click Properties/Startup Type/Disabled/restart your PC. You should no longer see that process running. Maybe this is a less intrusive and easy to re-enable fix?

Do the above said procedure by columbo in Safe Mode.

Hello
Thank you for your feedback!
This can cause instability on the system. We do not recommend you to turn off the service manually.
I have posted a feature request for this and it was sent to our developers. I will let know if it will be implemented.
Thank you!0 -

Hello
In the next product update, if the Parental Control module is not configured in My Bitdefender, it will be automatically disabled from the cloud and it should not interfere with your activities anymore.
Have a great day!0 -

I have a comment on this thread, so nobody throw bricks at me. Consider that your the parent of teenagers, would you want them stopping the BitDefender Services?
I mean, in some cases yes, but where Parental Controls are concerned this is a double edged sword. I'd like to have the option of having
the Services not stoppable by the user, i.e., not be allowed to receive a Stop Request and that their properties be immutable by even a System Admin unless in safe mode.
Is this possible?0 -
Hi Will
I haven't tried it yet, but can you go into My Bitdefender, click on your account tab drop down (the email address tab at the top) click Edit Profile and under Birth Date, create a password, and that will protect services from being changed or disabled w/o a password?0 -

The service should be stoppable by the Admin on that computer only. The Parents should be only the Admin on your child's device, laptop, computer, etc... Your child should not have admin privilege on his/her computer.0 -
