I believe you have an incorrect impression about what Private Browsing does.

You may also wish to consider setting up a separate Operating System account for each user. One effect of that is that each user will then have a separate Firefox profile.

If you wish to use software that you hope will make browsing safer it is quite possible to do that only on your son's account but not your husbands.

I think this addon should be capable of locking private browsing off
