And you also can lose the chance to find out what are the things your child is most curious about in the “buttery of the internet!” The disadvantage here is excessive strictness which is unacceptable from the point of view of child psychology. The advantage here is that the parents themselves choose the websites to be visited. «Allow Lists» - the websites selected by parents manually. The disadvantage here is that the database gets quickly out of date, and it takes time for the database to be updated. The advantage here is that the websites are already filtered and there is no need for parents to waste their time and sort the web pages out. «Block Lists» - the websites blocked and forbidden for using. Such programs can be divided into two types:Īctive Control is intended to set time limit on the computer, websites filter and applications restrictions as well as for online games. “Parental Control Programs” are right here to help them with it.
Most often parents have no time to check what their kids watch or what they do by the computer. Here are some warning symptoms of possible internet addiction: your child spends too much time by the computer, he tells you about his virtual friends and has almost no friends in real life. It’s very important to keep an eye on your kid to prevent it from getting totally internet addicted. The psychologists consider the pictures with violence or porno content to be harmful for the child’s psyche.
It should be kept in mind that children are very curious (investigative) and after visiting a web page with unwanted content or any adult website they will never leave that page by themselves.
And of course it’s different with adults and children. Everyone has got his own level of usefulness. Internet is a huge source of information which is real hard to filter into useful or harmful. The present-day world makes us deeply concerned about the child protection in cyberspace.
