Parental Control - easy or difficult

Nov. 10, 2010 - PRLog -- Parental Control is a phrase that appeared long long ago, but drew less attention . Literally, this is the feature for parents to control what their children see, hear and play...

As defined by Wiki, Parental Control is temporarily divided into four categories: filter content, limit control, management tools to limit computer usage time and monitor kids. However, Parental Control is only seen as a "plus" feature for today's electronic devices only, not a must-have feature. Digital television services, some computer operating systems, telephone ... that have been launched recently all support this feature.

For parents, the problem is that we do not understand how their children use the Internet, especially children from 13 to18 are much more difficult to control.

According to the statistics of a software company in the UK, teenagers spent two hours in a week to view porn sites. The U.S. government had asked the FCC to impose new blocking technology so as to allow parents to protect their children from the content that is not consistent since 2008.

And in recent years, the security software company, the modem manufacturer ... also added Parental Control feature in their products. Even the mobile network also offers the ability to monitor for parents (such as AT & T Smart Limits.) Most recently, Connect Safely organization also has launched a 32 page guide that is quite intuitive for parents to manage and supervise Facebook accounts of their children.

The important thing here is that we pay little attention to this feature when purchasing equipment or even a TV in the house also has Parental Control which we forget. Xbox, Playstation, Wii ... always have Parental Control available in the house. Children often use the same default account that parents use (usually admin rights), allowing them to do everything on your computer like parent. And when you buy an Xbox for children, parents often feel OK with her children, missing the oversight function that the Xbox, they forget that the Xbox can connect to network, share info ... and include Parental Control feature.

However, Parental Control is only a "domestic" solution only. Children often make in contact with friends, outside objects ... then they cannot eliminate the negative impact from the outside, which Parental Control cannot control. But if Parental Control functions right anywhere - schools, Internet cafe…, it's a very big effort to improve living environment for children. Anyway, the best way for children to access the Internet in a healthy manner is the guiding "hand" of parents and their "exemplary Internet life" .
