Child
Control is a simple but powerful tool with a simple interface that lets
you block other users' (particularly children) access to the computer
and Internet.Computers are the place for children. This is the place
where they can sharpen their agility as well as their abilities. They
can learn and make new friends. What’s more, the Internet provides
information for homework assignments. So far, so good. But they also
need to be protected from the computer—for one thing, so that they don’t
lose their sense of time and forget to go out and play with their
friends once in a while, and for another, because of the dangers lurking
on the Web.
Give children an “allowance” of time
Child
Control keeps track of the time your kids spend in front of the
computer. Once their time is up, the computer automatically shuts down
and won’t start up again—something any kid can understand. Our
experience has shown that Child Control verdict is accepted without
arguments—there is no debate and no discussion. Another way of looking
at it: “Child Control gives your kids back time that they are then free
to spend in other ways.”
Safety on the Internet
It
isn’t always easy to watch your young ones’ every move on the
computer—and it’s even harder to follow what they’re doing on the
Internet. Child Control can also help you here, by automatically
shutting the door on their Internet connection once their allotted time
is used up. Parents can easily regulate how many hours a day each child
can spend on the Internet, and even specify the precise hours of the day
when the gate to the worldwide online community will be available.
The Dark Side of the Internet
Sure,
you can find any number of sites that are useful for learning,
reference, and games. Then there are the other ones that are clearly
inappropriate for children and teens. Some parents also worry about
their children ending up on one of these sites by accident, or as the
result of a dare. These fears can be quickly put to rest by Child
Control, which has already made a name for itself in Internet
monitoring.
Control Internet access using filters
Child
Control lets you activate filters to block all websites oriented toward
violence or sex. You can also filter out specific words that may appear
on various websites. Alternatively, you can limit access to only the
websites that you specify. In that case, your kids will only be able to
access these sites, and all others will be off-limits. In the current
version, parents can also limit their kids’ stay on certain sites to a
specified time, so that eventually they will have to put their online
games away and get back to their homework.
All
in all, Child Control is an excellent tool for limiting time of other
users spent on your computer and we highly recommend it to everyone.
