If You Have a Child and a Computer - Read This! Sueanne Hagemann - PVNN
As the mother of a teenager daughter the access to the internet on our computer has been a battle for years. Always looking over her shoulder and trying to stay on top of where she was visiting on the internet. Then comes the fights “Oh Mom get over it”, “I was only on for 30 minutes”, “Everyone goes on that site” and so on.
After a lot of research on the different products available to monitor and block inappropriate sites I came upon a great product called Watch Dog. After you set the levels and content you want your child to have access to, it does the work and evens lets out a “Bark” when someone tries to access something not allowed.
It also keeps a log of all the times someone is one the internet, and best of all its free. So if you’d like to make one area of your parenting a teen easier, check it out. Now if they only had a tracking device for when she leaves the house!
