Parenting is one of the toughest jobs around. It's also the one with the best payoffs I've ever seen. Becoming a parent gives most adults a new perspective and respect for their own parents.
Children overall respect their parents but at some stage begin to make choices for themselves. We instill our guidance and morals in them and at some stage need to let them make decisions for themselves.
With computer usage, many parents set limits for their kids. We tell them what's acceptable and not so tolerated by us as their parents. We make strong recommendations about what they can and cannot do while surfing online and for many parents who aren't technologically advanced, they can only hope that their children heed the advice that they pass on because those parents know that there's a very good chance that their kids know much more about internet technology than they do. Even if we feel like we're inferior to our kids in the way of computer know-how, we do have options to help keep our kids safe.
Despite our warnings and the information we know the media and the school systems are telling our kids about internet based child predators and the unsavory information lurking on the World Wide Web, sometimes we don't feel confident that our kids are safe. Perhaps we just want to be sure or there are telltale signs that our teenager is treading in unfamiliar territory and dealing with peer pressure or the other trials of puberty. We want to be sure that everything is okay. Some parents feel like they can't communicate with their teenager but see that teen spending an enormous amount of time on the computer in chat rooms.
Software can be run by someone with or with out technical knowledge. It's easily installed and runs undetected in the background on the computer and then sends information to you at any e-mail address of everything that's happening on that computer based on parameters that you specify. You could look at chat transcripts, e-mails, websites viewed and keystrokes typed on or offline. This can help you determine what your kids are doing on the computer and let you know if there's any cause for concern.
Children are our responsibility and just because they get older, doesn't mean that their parents cease worrying about them. Naturally, you want to respect your child's privacy but the need to protect them if you suspect something is just not right is overpowering. Software can be used to temporarily diagnose the problem and be removed after you have the information you need.
