At the
age of 5, my son can actually navigate his Mom’s tablet without any hassle. He can also go online
and watch YouTube on Smart TV. Just like the other day, he was trying to
download one of the apps that I just deleted. As early as now, I am worried
that few years more, he can already browse the internet and might encounter
some sites that are not suitable for his age.

Internet
is a great resource for our kids. With just one
click, they can get the answers to their assignments. They can read encyclopedia and other books online. There are also online tutorials and classes available nowadays.
Though is it considered a big help in mental development, dangers are still behind this powerful technology. Cyberbullying and porn sites are
just two of the hazards that a kid may encounter as they click the mouse.
One
dilemma of parents about internet is on how to protect the kids against the risk of the
internet. For a parent that works full-time, like me, sitting beside them while doing
their research and working in front of the computer or other gadgets is not the
best way to take in control. What if you are not around?
Another way
to protect them from the possible online harm is to have protection tools. Familoop Safeguard is one of these that a smart parent may consider.
How does
it work?
