My father has a permission problem whenever he wants to drag an item

"/home/SonyCam" cannot be moved because you do not have permissions to
change it or it's parrent folder.
The buttons are Retry and Cancel any help would be appreciated.

This is normal under standard permissions. You have to change the
permissions and in the case of /home/{directory}, you will have to do it
as root.
Here is a handy refresher.

Files within /home/SonyCam could be moved/copied if the immutable bit is
set to the right value and groups are created. Or the directory could
be setup with no security.
