Some parents love the internet and encourage their kids to use it.
Others fear the dangers the internet can pose. The internet's potential benefits far outweigh any possible dangers. If you use commonsense and work with your children from the outset, they will be much more likely to behave responsibly. You need to learn about the internet, because your children will be using it. The dangers from internet use are the same as the danger posed by any technology, from the telephone to the television.
