1. An inappropriate use control system comprising:
a memory storing instructions; and
a processor connected to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to:
identify at least one of action determination conditions corresponding to a current situation, the action determination conditions including a condition related to a state of erroneous operation of the electronic device by the user;
determine a curbing action corresponding to the action determination conditions corresponding to the current situation, the curbing action being an action for curbing a user's inappropriate use of an electronic device carried by the user and used by the user;
determine a reference number of times of determination of the state of erroneous operation of the electronic device by the user on the basis of a number of times of erroneous operation of the electronic device by the user acquired in advance;
determine that erroneous operation of the electronic device by the user is frequent as the state of erroneous operation of the electronic device by the user when the number of times of erroneous operations of the electronic device by the user is equal to or greater than the reference number of times; and
execute the determined curbing action, wherein
when the current situation corresponds to at least one of the action determination conditions as conditions for determining the curbing action, the curbing action is determined according to a pattern of the action determination conditions to which the current situation corresponds, and
the curbing actions control the electronic device to prohibit at least one of an image operation, display of an image, audio output, and audio input.
