Whoa! Guys! Just a spectrum of choices here. The links have been useful. I certainly think it's important to supervise; but remember that 1) I'm talking about children under 10 here; and 2) they're not my kids;

--but on the spectrum of monitoring every keystroke to letting them surf to their hearts content, I'd be more inclined to give them a judicious amount of privacy and trust. I certainly wouldn't want every keystroke monitored, now or ever, and I don't think I would want to do that for my kids.

BUT. It's not just porn I'm worried about. It's people. Monetary or sexual predators. Probably a review of historical sites, supervised (i.e., in plain view) surfing, duplicates of emails, and time limits, for now may be fine.
