Kids and the Internet

Honestly, if my momma and poppa spied on me online, I couldn't be here. But they trust me to use my best judgment about where I go and what I do online - And I know the cellar ain't a threat to anything but my innocence.

Very well described Aliantha. That is essentially what we do, keeping it in the open. Cloud needs to consider the parenting style of her grandkids' parents. Her method needs to match theirs. Mercenary has an authoritarian parenting style, his kids will have to be watched very closely because they've always been watched closely. Permissive parents risk raising kids who don't think they are cherished and can find trouble on the net. Authoritative parenting like Aliantha's is most effective for raising kids who can be successful on the net and by extention in a free society.

It is not the cellar, it is all the porn you go to.
