What are your kids checking out online? Credit: Getty Images
Kids are getting online earlier and earlier. When our little ones are still very little, it's easy to keep them locked in to PBS Kids, AOL Kids, Nick Jr. and other kid-friendly destinations.
It's when they get older that we have to worry about who they are chatting with and what videos they watch on YouTube.
Sure, we trust them. But there are some creepy people in the world. And while they will eventually see any, shall we say, adult video that they want to see, that doesn't mean they have to see it now.
So, parents, what do you do?

Ryan Dunmore said...Talk to kids about what's okay and what's not. Set security on the internet browser. Have them stick to family friendly sites. We particularly enjoy Http://bit.ly/GamesForFree as a family. Everything on the entire site is free, so we don't have to worry about some random charges accidentally showing up from something the kids clicked. The games are all decent for children, so it's a nice place to let them play fun games. And we keep the computer in our living room area and not in a closed door room.
