Why would you want to? If he or she is old enough let them be. You brought them up to be responsable adults - let them discover their own life.

There are different ways to handle it. if you know a specific site, then you can add it as restricted site in the internet options of your browser. But it is not at all effective because someone can get to site which you don'y know and get from search engines.\n\nThe best solution is to get parental control software. there are many of them if you search in www.download.com.\n\nThe best one and probably the free one, it "Naomi internet filter". it is an excellent software to protect your kids against online unsafe content.\nGet it from: http://www.radiance.m6.net/\nHope it helps.\n\nJust as side note, not only software can  protect your kids but you also need to be watchful about internet habit. Also warn them about bad things in the internet.

Have any users who are viewing adult content delete the history each time they sign off.  Or don't look at porn on the same computer your kids use.

Instead of taking away all chat rooms why don't you teach your 13-year-old how to use the Internet and chat rooms safely.  Find websites with kid friendly chat rooms and tell them if they want to chat, only to chat here and never EVER give out personal information like name, address, or telephone number.  Explain to them that on the Internet anyone can be who they want to be and just because someone sends you a picture that doesn't mean that picture is really them.\n\nAlso make sure you put the computer in the most public place you can find, usually the kitchen or living room is a good choice.  As long as there is always someone coming or going so they can check in on your child and make sure they're not in inappropriate chat rooms or visiting inappropriate sites.\n\nBy blocking all chat rooms and making them forbidden it's only going to make them more appealing in your 13-year-old's eyes and he/she won't have the skills to use them safely.  He/she will find a way to use them either at a friends house, at school, or at the library.\n\nInternet safety is a skill that will last a lifetime and it's better that you teach it sooner rather than when it's too late.

No. There are many software packages which advertise that they do that, but it is technically not possible to block everything.\n\nInstead, have your children use the internet responsibly, and don't let "it" alone keep them company, as you might do with tv for excample. The internet is not a child-friendly place.

pretty cheeky dude.. haan..\n\nj/k.\n\nthere aer two ways in which you can block sites.\n\none way is to enable content advisor in Internet Explorer. You can set up a supervisor password for that also. \nOpen internet explorer\nclick on tools\nclick on options\nclick on 'content'\nclick on enable content advisor\nset up the settings as per your needs\nif you wish, then create a password\nif all done well, you'll have set up a content advisor for IE. \n\nThe other way is to add the websites that your child has already visited to the "restricted sites" list\nhowever, that'll not be a perfect solution because of the fact that there will be many more sites like that .\n\nopen ie\ngo to options\nclick on security\nclick on restricted sites\nclick on 'sites' on the right\nenter the sites \nclick add\nclick ok\nclick ok\n\nhope that helps

Then talk to her about why she shouldn't use it, and don't let her access it.  Yahoo does remove obscene questions, but it's up to you to make sure that your daughter understands why she shouldn't use it.  If you just tell her "no because I said so", she's more likely to try to use it on her own anyways just to see what the fuss is about.  \n\nAt any rate, a service that preported to be 16+ would probably attact even more bad people, because they'd know that's where all the underage kids are hanging out.

You should educate her about net safety rather than try to prevent her from using unsafe sites.\nTeach her not to trust people she meets online, rather than cut them off altogether.\n\nIt's best that the child understands why she is not allowed to see things that she shouldn't, and talk to people she doesn't know in the offline world.\n\nYou're doing the wrong thing by trying to prevent it. Children are much smarter that you think they are, and given time will break all your protection schemes if they really want to. And you wouldn't know a thing.

Dateline did a couple of reports on Internet predators. On the page about these reports are some links for parents including programs to help monitor usage. Take a look at http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/10912603/\n\nAnother site just came to mind. To help her understand why she needs to be careful on the Internet, sit down with her and browse through the site http://www.perverted-justice.com You will probably want to visit first by yourself to get a good understanding of the site.

Ah, can you just answer one additional question:\n\nIs this to prevent your kids from accessing the sites?\n\nThere is software such as "NetNanny", "CyberPatrol" or "WebWatcher" that can prevent access to websites you dont want them to get access to, i personaly find it a challange to bypass such systems and therfore would recomend that you tell you kids that if they wish to use those sites then they do so outside of your house.\n\nAnnother option is if you have an operating system like Windows XP (VISTA has all the options you want, but is a terrible Operating System), you can install a program to monitor a certain account (to ensure they are not doing anything you dont want them to be doing, you can even log what emails they write).

I was going to suggest that you always be in same room as child when she is on-line, that way you can monitor where she is going much better.  Do know of Nanny Watch and other filters that parents  use also, but once kids get a little older they usually have how to get around them figured out.  It's sad that little ones have to be exposed to such things when they are truly only looking up things that interest them then get on some porn page that just because it has the word directs them there.  These machines aren't that great afterall.

Get anti-spyware software. There's a free Microsoft Anti-Spyware program at the Microsoft website. You can also get a free pop-up blocker which is available with Google and Yahoo! Toolbars.\n\n...And also, stop visiting porn websites, if you are.
