Summer Safety: Keeping your Child Safe Online with Care4Teen

I am not a parent of a teenager, yet! But I am the mom to an eight year old that enjoys kid friendly games on his computer. Majority of the time he is online, I am close enough to see exactly what he is doing at all times but there are some occasions that I am not. Anyone familiar with the internet knows that one wrong click can lead you to something unintended that is inappropriate for the eyes of a child. For example, we were searching the term “ripe mango” in order to find out how to select the best mango at the grocery store. Well a few links down and we weren’t in the land of tropical fruits, if you know what I mean. With school projects on the horizon I know that we will be relying on the internet even more for information and even with me by his side, I don’t want him to click on sites that are not intended for children. So, short of banning the internet, what do you do?

Turn to Care4Teen.com to monitor and control your child’s online activity. It’s a FREE program designed for parents who want to take charge of their child’s online searching and monitor where they have been, what they search for, and who they are interacting with. With Care4Teen you are in control. Here are some highlights of the features of Care4Teen:

• Remote Access

• Intuitive Blocking of Websites
  Care4Teen.com automatically blocks a large number of websites, either because of their blatant inappropriate content or because the majority of other parents have black-listed the site. There is also a comprehensive white list of websites with over 3 million websites available to your children.
