Is the Internet Evil for Kids?

I feel this comes back to the basic ideas of responsibility. Parents need to be responsible for monitoring what their kids do on the internet. It’s actually reassuring to see that parents are now taking these necessary steps, wither it be talking with their kids or visiting the same webs sites together, to ensure that their children are safe on the net. I do find it interesting that more fathers find online games and social network sites less inappropriate then mothers do. I would have thought the numbers would be closer to even then a 15 percent gap. I wonder if it’s a matter or father’s being a little more naïve about the internet, or mothers being a little too overprotective…
