What do you know about your child’s On-line Life

by

My kids aren’t really old enough just yet to be hitting the on-line sites.  They do have a few games they play but as for surfing?  No, thank goodness.  Just listening to my buddies who have children who are starting to want email accounts, facebook pages and the like, makes me a little scared. 

But, if you are looking in all the right places, you can find good cyber-control or Cyber-Patrol if you will to help you protect your children and prevent them from just running up on pages they need to be immune to for a few more years. 

It isn’t that hard to run up on pages by accident either because I’ve done it myself.  So, if you lave a kid in charge of his own surfing and searching, he/she could easily find pages that are simply too mature for them.

So, go find you a place to help your kids surf safely.  What about the Cyber Patrol I mentioned earlier.  I was fortunate enough to get a year subscription to check out the product.  And, it works quite well and for that matter, I tried to beat it.  I tried to disable it and it was no easy task. 

As a matter of fact, I’ve been trying for a week to no avail.  I only wanted to uninstall it because I’m an adult and my kids don’t play on my computer……but trust me, it’s not as easy as one might think.  And, I happen to know that most kids know more about hacking than we think but even my husband couldn’t get in to this one.  So, yea Cyber Patrol…
