As my child an Internet geek girl I have to keep track of what she is doing online. Happily, my colleague Diane recommended me parental control software Ez Parental Control. This program is great! It is easy to use that allows me to restrict my kid activity by blocking programs or websites with adult content. Internet safety is rapidly becoming one of the toughest issues facing parents today.

They may know they are being logged, but they don't have much say in the matter. Especially if Smoothwall is used as the DHCP host... have fun bypassing that. But anyway, rebeling against parents probably isn't going to be the concern. A good logging method, such as using a firewall like Smoothwall, does not give the teen a choice.

This is a major reason I keep up with technology and do log IM conversations and occasionally check them. I have 6 kids in my home, ranging from 10 to 13. What seems to be working was sitting them all down and explaining the danger to them. I then explained that thier freedom is theirs to lose, and that I would occasionally monitor what they do on Myspace and IM programs. They are free to use them, and we occasionally log in and check things out. It seems to have worked well so far. Great article.
