Family Friendly Technology Needs-My Two Cents

On the note of family freindly technology, I would like the following wish list:1-The ability to read my childrens cell phone text messages and be emailed or text'd when a x rated word is used.Accidentally, I found some poor unforunate girl's texts to my son that showed her efforts to enlighten my son on things of the sexual matter. He said she was this "nasty" girl who won't stop texting him and he ignores her. I had to send her a text asking her to leave my son alone and that I would be…See More

Games, Games, and More Games

I want more E (everyone)Rated Games for my kids. I wish our Playstation could prohibit the use of M(mature) games, much like you can do on your television. I think some parents hold out on getting these gaming boxes because most of what is out there is too violent or sexual. It's frustrating.

It is perfect for a creative kid who isn't into the racing type games. I wanted to put the game on one of our non-internet computers… Continue
