PARENTAL CONTROL

YOUR KIDS KNOW MORE ABOUT YOUR COMPUTER THAN YOU DO...

... But they don't know more than us!

The Internet is one of the greatest inventions of all time. As our families become increasingly intertwined with it, the more active role we must take to protect our loved ones from Internet pornography. Although nothing can take the place of a well-informed parent that takes an active part in their children's online activities, a Parental control or Internet filter software adds a strong, additional layer of defense - giving parents an added measure of control and further peace of mind.

Parental control software gives you the ability to control content displayed, block websites and set up passwords. Powerful services like email filtering, popup blocking and chat room monitoring are just some of the tools available with today's Internet filter software — each designed to protect against and counteract the tactics of aggressive online porn companies.

The Pornography Industry

• Over $10-Billion spent on porn annually. Larger than NFL, NBA, Major League Baseball combined.

• Over two million known porn site URL's. More than 2,500 new sites coming online every week. Pornography is an obscenity, not "free speech," and has never been protected by our Supreme Court. Most of it is temporary and hard to find, to punish legally.  Most of it originates off-shore, not covered by US law. Unimaginable things most people would not even remotely consider sexy are routinely available on the Internet.
   

 The Scale of the Problem

• Nine out of 10 children aged between eight and 16 have viewed pornography on the Internet. In most cases, the sex sites were accessed unintentionally when a child, often in the process of doing homework, used a seemingly innocent sounding word to search for information or pictures. (London School of Economics January 2002) 

• 25 million Americans visit cyber-sex sites between 1-10 hours per week. Another 4.7 million in excess of 11 hours per week. (MSNBC/Stanford/Duquesne Study, Washington Times 1/26/ 00)

• Even 51% of pastors say cyber porn is a possible temptation. 37% say it is a current struggle (Christianity Today, Leadership Survey, December 2001).

• 63% of men attending "Men, Romance & Integrity Seminars" admit to struggling with porn in the past year. Two-thirds are in church leadership and 10% are pastors (Pastor's Family Bulletin, Focus on the Family, March 2000).

• 1 in 7 calls to Focus' Pastoral Care Line is about Internet pornography (Pastor's Family Bulletin, Focus on the Family, March 2000).
   

So, what is Parental control?

[Parental controls]

Parental controls are options, typically included in digital television services, violent computer and video games, or computer software used to access the Internet that allows a parent to limit what a child can see or do. These controls often allow for the blocking of television stations, the removal of gore from computer games, the blocking of inappropriate websites, such as those containing pornography, or the automatic censoring of swearing.

This is from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

You can find a "Parent's Guide to Internet Safety" guide with many good advice regarding:
“What Can You Do To Minimize The Chances Of An On-line Exploiter Victimizing Your Child?”
or
“What Should You Do If You Suspect Your Child Is Communicating With A Sexual Predator On-line?”
