[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really bad to let kids have phone or computer in their room alone.[/quote]

why? what is really bad about that?[/quote]

You really aren't aware that there's a ton of content on the internet that would be really inappropriate for a 10 year old to see and would be super easy for them to stumble on to?[/quote]

Also, victims and perpetrators of cyber bullying usually have comps in their rooms. Lots of unsupervised computer time.[/quote]

Good luck. We found out our DD was having group chat between friends by sharing a Google document on their school issued accounts.

If you watched her, it looked like she was just editing a word document. In reality it was a group chat! Kids will find a way...[/quote]

I think you're missing the point. You should make it as difficult as possible for your kids to find A way rather than help them along .[/quote]

Yep, as a mom to teens, I agree with this point generally. E.g., I might not be able to prevent my teen from drinking or having sex. That doesn't mean I allow my DSs to drink beer in their bedrooms are have their girlfriends sleep with them.[/quote]
