Why Use Content Filtering Software?

The internet is full of wonderful content. There are online encyclopedias, newspapers, music libraries, and a child today has access to virtually every bit of knowledge that has ever evolved. But, there is also a lot of content out there that is not for children`s eyes. Content filtering software is one way you can prevent your children from seeing some of the many things that they are just not old enough to be seeing.

Imagine if your child had free reign on the internet, with no one ever watching over his or her shoulders. They might use some of that childhood curiosity to go find the answers to some of life`s biggest questions before his brain was really ready to process the answers. But, not all internet browsing is intentional. Your child may receive an email that was not meant for him, or find himself on a spam list that sends links to websites that a child shouldn`t see. Content filtering software can help you spot those before your child sees them.

The anonymous nature of the internet allows all of this to happen, virtually without penalty. Children are subject to much more pornographic material than they were in our day, not to mention all of the violence and bad language that they can see on the internet, without any effort on their part at all.

There are some critics who will tell you that content filtering software is some sort of invasion of privacy, or even a form of censorship, but you wouldn`t let your child leaf through adult magazines in a bookstore, would you? Well, the internet can be just as dangerous, and even more so, if you don`t use this kind of software. The rest of the media world - video games, movies, music, television shows - are all rated to let you know whether or not your child can partake, but the internet is not. So, you need to make sure you do all you can to only let your child see what is right for them.

A product like PC Tattletale helps you keep tabs on what your child can and cannot see and also relieves you from the burden of having to explain what certain unmentionable things are on the web that they might come across. This type of content filtering software allows you to block certain websites, or prevent your child from seeing emails with certain words appearing in the subject line or content. You can also block internet messages (IMs) from bad influences, unknown parties, or from people who your child simply shouldn`t be talking to.

By monitoring who is attempting to contact your child, either through email or IM, you can prevent discussions from even taking places, ones that could lead them into trouble. You can also block your child from accidentally or intentionally visiting websites that could harm him, endanger him, or are just too adult for his eyes. Every child deserves to have their childhood untarnished by adult material, and that is really the purpose of content filtering software.
