Here are some examples of inappropriate content kids have accessed: 
Netflix-some kids brought in home account
Violent over 18yr games
"Safe" games with online chats where anything goes (I've seen it)
Music sites with explicit lyrics
South Park episodes like:  "Anal Probe"

These are your worries? That kids "might" see these things? LOL... your oldest isn't a teenager yet, huh?[/quote]

Not the PP, but you are completely and entirely missing the point.  Will kids see this and worse?  Probably, yes.  Will they see it in the middle of class, while the teacher is teaching or during breaks in the school building?  At most DC schools NO, because they are not supposed to have phones or tablets out in class or during breaks.

Maybe you don't mind your middle or high schooler watching Netflix or playing video games during class.  All parents I know would have HUGE problems with that.  A current DCI parent has spoken to this, it's a problem.  If you don't see the problem in it, well maybe you should be more worried about the learning atmosphere at your teens' schools if this is normal to you during the instructional day.[/quote]
