[quote=Anonymous]It is absolutely necessary today to monitor our teens and children's screens. Internet privacy is a privilege not a right. They should earn there way to that by showing responsibility/maturity.  The internet is a hotbed for problems in our children and teens, as I'm sure you know. Our teens are extremely vulnerable. Their brains are still developing until their mid 20's and their emotions run very high so they get sucked into things very easily. I would put limits on the screen time, then do random spot checks to see who they are communicating with. Also, follow them on their social media and make sure they don't have any accounts that you can't see. Make sure the people they are interacting with are those you know. Look at their history. Porn addiction is a huge problem in our society today and is affecting our teens and all ages in numbers that are astronomical.  In addition, you need to educate https://bit.ly/2XB3Erz yourself, your husband, and your child/teen on the internet dangers and how to protect your family. Keep lines of communication open so your child/teen feels comfortable going to you when something questionable happens. If you see any changes in their behavior make sure you communicate with them about it and find solutions. Praying for safety for your family. [/quote]
