Is there a computer program to control time limits for children?

This program is great for blocking sites that you don't want your children to see. You can put a seperate identity for each family member (if you have kids with different ages) AND you CAN put time limits on when they can use the internet. It does cost money, but it is well worth it.  It's called Content Protect. Here's the site:\n\n http://www.hermanstreet.com/store/index.html

All of these will help, net nanny, aol parental controls, mcafee parental controls etc\nBut having raised three children with a computer in the house 24/7.  I think you always need to monitor and talk to your children.  My oldest son is now 22,  he grew up with the computer as I have worked in tech support for two decades.  While I worked at MTU, he had access 24/7 at a lab that I didn't have total control over.  But he knew if I EVER caught him looking at anything I didn't approve of, I would terminate his access.  It helped I worked with all the sys admins at the time.  But when friends would ask this question and he was around, the would tell them " my dad knows what I do, and if I mess up, I won't be able to use a computer anywhere.  By being honest with my son, he was able to learn to program in three languages by the time he was 10. I also believe this open honesty between the two of us flowed into every other area of our relationship.  You know kids do really want your approval.  Build trust and listen.

for advances in pediatric care, you really have to pick a time span. Antibiotics are huge, but not very recent. One can consider medicines like ritalin for helping kids concentrate

If you gave them an individual clock, it will strengthen their ability to see the numbers better, and where each number is.  They can turn the dial on their on and learn time that way. If you do decide to give them individual ones, ask them a certain time and hold up their clocks when they have the answer. Make a test out of it and that way you can see what child needs to work on which area of time. Good Luck!

If you're looking to keep yourself or others on your network from going to sites at different hours your best bet is to use a firewall.  A Linksys router's interface, for instance, includes a section called Access Restriction where you can block by website address, including certain times of the day or days of the week.  I have also heard of a new software on the market for parents to control their children's online time, but I hear reports of computer-savvy kids being able to work their way around it.  If you do use a firewall already, check what its settings let you do and make sure you have set a secure password on it which your children would not be able to guess.

you need to install some type of parental control software.  net nanny is excellent.  i know yahoo dsl subscribers and road runner subscribers have parental control software for free as part of their subscriptions.\n\nif they are younger kids parental control is the way to go because it is preventative.  for my older one, i use monitor software instead... more trust, but the ability to see everything they do/type/see etc so i can discuss with them if need be.

There is one available here, that can take automated pictures at given time intervals. It is a very easy way to do time lapse photography, I'm not familiar with the program you mentioned, but this one is free, so its worth a try (it is near the bottom of the page):\n\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx

Get a fake clock with moveable hands (you can make one with cardboard). First show them time on the hour (1:00, 2:00, etc. ) Once they have grasped that concept, teach them 1:30, 2:30, etc. Then move on to 1:15 and 1:45. Obviously, do this with all hours. Then teach them to tell time to within 5 minutes. Once they know this really well, teach them to tell time within the minute. To help them grasp the concept of time, set a stopwatch for a minute and make them wait so they know how long a minute is. Any longer, and they won't stay still. Hope this helps.

I would recommend cyberpatrol (link below).  They offer a 14 day trial.  It has features such as time restrictions (both time of day and number of minutes/hours a day using the internet).  It pre-set security based on age ranges (child, pre-teen, teen, mature teen), that can be customized.  It will also allow you to track what websites were visited and more importantly which ones they tried to visit (but were denied).  It also monitors instant messaging and chat software.  I believe the cost is $30.00 but it's well worth it when it comes to instant messaging.  It also has different profiles (multple kids or one for kids and one for the parents).\n\nMy feeling is, I trust my kids but would like to occasionally check to make sure they are using good judgement.  Plus I wanted to limited the amount of time they were spending on the internet.

There are multiple ways to do this, one is through software, and one is through utilizing a service such as yahoo's (disclaimer, I have yahoo sbc dsl) and they can limit that for you, but that is at the provider end, not the local computer end.\n\nSoftware could be like Net Nanny or Safe Surf.  There are plenty of options if you will type in something like "family safe internet" on your search engine of choice.  Also, look for "get around xyz" where xyz is the product that you want to use.  Use verbs like bypass and such to figure out how kids might duck past your security measures.\n\nAlso, ask around.  If you're involved with a church, ask the youth minister.  They usually know which of the older kids are tech_heads and able to help you with those sorts of questions.  Otherwise, ask at your local library.
