This is an interesting delima. Do you have a program to monitor what your kids are seeing or typing on the internet? I don't like the idea of spying on them.
The way I see it, let them see porn at home, where you can see what they're up to instead of having them go out and see it other places. You cannot hide porn from them. Most of the people here watched porn without monitors and see what happened...
Originally posted by kirksey957If her photo is somewhat recent (like within the last year or so) it's perfectly reasonable for her to monitor what they're seeing and to want to keep them from getting onto porn sites. I can understand that there'd be a variety of opinions if they were 17, but my guess is they're closer to eleven and twelve. All internet safety speakers encourage knowing what sites your children are accessing just as you'd monitor anyone else they invite into your home. Since they're obviously talking to strangers on the 'net, it's nice to have some clue where they're meeting these strangers online. I don't think the age of absolute internet freedom should come before the age of freedom to drive a car unsupervised. Just my opinion, though. That and a dollar will get you a cup of coffee.

If I turn off "enable unrated sites to be viewed" then it asks for a password. The only problem with that, is then it asks for a password for almost any web site.
I'm not worried about the kids searching for porn, I'm worried about them finding it on accident, not so hard to do on the internet. 😕
Edit: Here's your coffee Lundos! Cream and sugar?
