It helps with the kids because it gives them some sense of autonomy even if you do get to exercise some "parental controls".
More importantly -- your bookmarks, your "saved passwords" and logins would only be available to someone who could sign in on your account. It would be a means for preserving your privacy, particularly if you didn't want to share what you say here with your family for whatever reason.
