Well, that's an unnecessarily flip comment. I would say most children
between the ages of 11 and 17 have quite a bit of unsupervised (directly)
time for recreation. This does not mean the parents are being delinquent,
only that they are allowing the children to develop independence. I don't
think it's reasonable to expect a parent to watch over a 15-year-old's
shoulder for every minute of Internet time. Links are not always what they
seem. A person can innocently click on a link, thinking it's a G-rated site
and be presented with pretty raunchy stuff. If filtering software can
prevent some of this from happening and allow children to have some
independent surfing time, I see nothing wrong with it.
