I still don't understand how there are people on HN who think that giving their kids less access to technology is somehow a virtuous position to take. When I was the same age as my kids I could have gotten into all sorts of shit on a BBS or Compuserve forum -- my parents had no idea what was going on, but they'd given me a basic sense of right and wrong, and somebody to talk to if I was concerned. You've got to educate them about the world, but cutting them off from it is not the way to do that.
