Children are naturally curious and this causes the internet to be dangerous. Varied situations and responses produce these dangers.

Children are at risk. From online predators to life long addiction to pornography, the ways and means are endless.

The almighty dollar is the reason pornography will not go away anytime soon. Pornography has the abiltity to produce more income than Detroit's big three.

Because anyone can be anybody online, parents need to be on guard to make sure their children aren't giving out information to strangers, or worse, meeting up with them. Every parent has to be involved in what their children are, and the internet is no exception.

Some Social sites encourage meeting other people and need to be monitored closely. Parents have to have control over who their kids freinds are as well as making sure their child's profile is private.

Monitoring your child online is his best protection, filters are an added help.

A well designed filter will give a parent the peace and mind knowing that even when they can't be there, safeguards are in place.

A filter should be fast as well as tamper proof and only changed by a third party. Having the third party eliminates the chance of it being removed by someone or allowing unwanted sites accessed.

Software that collects the online activity of each family computer will help a parent know what their children are searching for, and what has been found!

Many filters offer some sort of monitoring with the internet filter. Other programs can take screen shots, monitor time limits and more. A thorough search of options will help determine what software is right for you.

It is a Parent's job to protect their children. Protect them by monitoring them online and making sure the computer is in a public place.

Filtering and monitoring software provide parents the tools they need to protect their family.
