The Internet is a great resource for children to learn, interact and broaden their horizons. It also mirrors real life. Some items may be objectionable for a child. Software products are available that help keep the Internet "safe" by blocking Web sites and newsgroups containing inappropriate materials. It is important to remember that parental-control programs are helpful, but they do only part of the job. Parents serious about protecting their children on-line can begin by discussing the Internet's rewards and risks and frequently monitoring the child's Internet activities.
