I agree with your conclusion,

…It is now their responsibility to take advantage of the tools and controls at their disposal to determine what is acceptable within their homes for their families…

I strongly believe that Internet is the ‘’today’’ part of new technologies and like any powerful tool of nature, has to be managed and accessed properly to get real benefits out of it. And, only a combination of educational-guide tool and parental involvement is still the most effective way to keep our kids safe online…

That’s why we created AxylomClass ® a 2nd generation of Internet parent control software based on an innovative approach without exploiting standard technological filter or censure approaches but with Trust mode of navigation to develop a real parent-child communication.

AxylomClass ® lend a hand as parent to develop and to sustain self-governance, ethical and critical attitudes from yours children electronically connected to the world with a solid control on Internet clutter by creating your private Internet (Virtual Library).

Finally, to give them a reason to push aside all of that clutter and focus on reaching their true potential at home, in school and beyond

Does anyone know of any organizations that are giving grants to fund school disctricts so they can teach online safety courses to parents and school children? If there are any websites I can go to, please advise. Thanks.

just came across a new site called www.yokidsyo.com that seems to be targeted at pre-teen kids. It appears there are parental controls available (i.e. buddy list must be approved by parents) and neat stuff for both kids and parents. I'm interested to see how it does...

Please send me a copy of your report when you complete it. And if you don't mind please add my Online Safety Action Campaign which is trying to achieve similar goals in South Africa.

I'm trying to establish something similar in South Africa: an Online Safety initiative supported by industry and the media. The media is all over me about a very popular mobile IM service called MXit after I released a Parents Guide to MXit in November 2006. How can I obtain some guidelines to grow this project?
