When my kids were the age of your kids, they could only post via AOL, and I set up their accounts as children, so they couldn't access mature sites. And they have been lectured regularly about not posting personal information, which I think they comply with. Ben is now 14, and Nick is almost 12 ~ I let them access the net through my account, without filters, but I trust them not to get into trouble, just as I no longer have locks on the cabinet with the cleaning solutions, and no longer have the knives stored where they can't get at them. My rule is "no porno, and no weapons of mass destruction", and I think they go along with that. They don't play with electricity, or gasoline, either. As for sex, I don't think Nick is at all interested, and Ben probably reads about it in the science fiction books he reads, but I really don't know, or care. He's mature enough to handle that, at least. |
