Child themes

Child themes don't appear to be working properly for admin accounts. I tested this by creating an child theme of adventurous, opening it up in a new tab it wasn't loading/displaying properly. Opened it up in a new incognito window (so as to be logged out) and it loaded/displayed fine. I then created a contributor account, and logged into it, and it still displayed fine, changed the contributor account to an admin account, refreshed the page, and it went back to not loading/displaying properly. also, as a secondary, it could be helpful to update this page with a sample child theme for adventurous: http://catchthemes.com/blog/create-child-theme-wordpress/ Thanks, Dave
