Re: How Would You Control Your (Hypothetical) Children's Internet Use?

[personal profile] lunabee34 2013-03-11 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
We have a ten-year old who's in the fourth grade. She's learning basic computing skills at school (they started in kindergarten!), and they use the internet in a variety of ways at school, including homework assignments sometimes.

She can use the computer in the living room; she doesn't have a computer in her room, and I want to put that off for as long as possible. She doesn't have an email address (although she's getting to the age where we probably will make her a gmail soon if for nothing else than emailing the grandparents and aunts and uncles) or belong to any social networking sites like Facebook. So far, all she really wants to do on the internet is look up silly cat videos on Youtube, play Sushi Cat, and do her homework, so we haven't really had to deal with any content issues yet.

As her computer skills/desire to be on the internet expands, I plan to discuss with her safety issues and privacy issues and the dangers of publicly posting certain kinds of information (that potential employers might one day see, etc.).

I fully expect her to get into fandom as she already spends most of her time drawing the characters from her favorite shows or writing fanfic for them anyway. LOL I don't know exactly how I plan to handle that, but I don't intend to forbid her from participating in fandom.
