The Complete Layman's Guide to Cyber Safety: Keep kids safe - Dec. 7, 2006 Money magazine senior editor Pat Regnier compares the internet to TV. Pat proclaims that the same consideration and discipline a parent needs to impart on TV time should be also given to the time a child spends on the internet. Pat believes that talking to kids about how to value privacy and obey the rules set by the family are important. We here at KKCS think the idea of treating the web like a TV is very much a good thing for parents and their children. Of course web filters are also suggestion from the likes of CyberPatrol, Cybersitter and Safe eyes. We also like Net Nanny.

Ask for Kids Search engines are often the source for information that you may or may not want your kids exposed to. For instance, try searching on some of your favorite terms in the "images" section of the google.com search and see what interesting photos appear. Ask Jeeves has come up with a solution for this, they have created a search engine which is scrubbed down and specifically geared for children. This kind of cyber governance is something we like to see here at KKCS.
