Internet Safety

I've had a rash of kids exposed to inappropriate web content lately. Parents must be so careful with any device that can access the internet. If a piece of hardware can't support parental control software, then I don't think kids should be using it. iPhones, iPads, PSP, Wii, XBox, PS3, and even some televisions can easily access any website. Old cell phones can still access WiFi even after the cellular plan is deactivated. Many times, an innocent search brings up inappropriate websites. All internet use should occur in a public part of the house with parental supervision. If kids can't abide by that simple rule, then they should be restricted from the internet.
