keeping/your/kids/safe


You’ve been on the Internet; you’ve seen how foul and nasty it is. Think about the messages your kids are picking up; think about the shady characters they’re going to meet.
There’s software you can install on your computer to help filter out some of the worst parts of the Internet, but instead of turning to software, I highly recommend that you put your family’s computer in a public part of the house (such as the living room or kitchen) and then keep an eye on your kids whenever they’re on the Internet.
I know that eventually your kids will start browsing the Internet on their own, but if you keep an eye on them during their formative stages and give them useful advice for avoiding the scum of the net, they’ll probably be well prepared when they start browsing by themselves.
