Safe Browsing for the Family

I would want to express it in a way that internet is like a jungle or deep sea were you find everything the good and the bad. Computer wizards, young experimenters, fraudulent, and also the real people that are good are all on the internet. With our children right now we have to guard then against the unwanted materials.

Children are introduced to different world by the internet but we can guard then through means of having a parental control on our computer anti virus. Make sure when one is buying an anti virus it has a parental control feature whereby you can allow and block some site for the children. Also one can block the website in router software that will be supplying internet to the computer. It's important to have the governance like that.

If there is no guard our children will be exposed to elicit thing on the internet and that way we have spoiled the children. Imagine a ten year old child surfing the internet and is exposed to explicit materials like nudity and automatically that child will be fast forwarded to the wrong materials for that age and that will influence the behavior of the child.

Anti virus has such controls and the reason why usually the people don't use such facilities to control children is because they are not usually aware of such systems availability hence it will be an issue of ignorance. If an antivirus is customized well it become control software that will make a safe computer browsing experience.

The parents are also not an exception of internet abuse. One has to be aware when to pay using your credit cards on the internet, because if you are going to be a victim of internet phishing your funds can be stolen by means of this identity theft which will make them be able to access your funds.

In a family setup computers have to be used wisely and the parents and require a basic training of the control of governing the internet. Make sure the child has a spy system to track the web experience they are being exposed to. Otherwise without that the morals of a family are easily broken down. Even on television they do have the control why would one have internet and not have the control of what we are going to be exposed to. I think as a tool of correcting the errors it is crucial to have such control systems in place than to leave it on a free fall.
