Slightly OT- Looking for recomendations on parental control software
As I said, slightly OT, but if I post on computer board I will get tech
specs & geek talk. and I am just interested in hearing recomendations from parents who may be using parental control software on their home computers to protect their kids from the untowards places on the internet. I am running windows xp home edition, take internet to laptop and a desktop from a router, comes in on DSL. I am thinking the very limitiing kind would suit my needs, like the kind that only allows kids to go to pre-approved sites... I am guessing a kid would request a site and the parent would have to authorize that specific site. Another nice feature would be to turn off internet access all together... to save the "I need the laptop to type a paper for school" but then trolling the web when I am not looking. BTW- all you superparents who are tempted to give me the old "my kid would never think of doing that anything wrong online.. " or "If I caught my kid doing something like that I would hit him so hard with the ol' belt his butt would bleed for a week" stuff. We are not all uberparents like you are.. (or represent yourselves as) so some of us need a little advice every now and then.. so just save the lecture, if you have nothing relevant to say on this topic.. hold the parenting advise.. |
