Do use the right tools. We need to acknowledge that and deal with it. One of the ways to deal with it is to use available software that blocks access to adult sites. This helps, but parents still need to keep an eye on where kids go for social and political information as well. Do talk about the Internet.
Nothing demystifies a topic like conversation.
Talk to your kids about the Internet in general and what they see on it. Let them know it's a cool topic of discussion with you and that they should always come to you with questions and opinions about the Internet. Do learn the rules of the road. You'll pick it up during your Net travels. You are responsible for your own children, of course, but using these guidelines as you approach the Internet can help you and your children enjoy being part of this new frontier.
