This website takes a different approach vis-a-vis all that has been said and written on the Internet. While appreciating the efforts put in by other websites, I firmly believe that where there is a question of dealing with our children on touchy issues, then technology and control, always play a secondary role. It is how we put and expect reciprocal trust is what comes first. That is the very reason for the existence of this site.
Your website contains a variety of recommendations and helpful tips. I have consciously tried to avoid to come across as a preacher..because that is not what this initiative is meant to be. We are here for building a very strong community to help make the transition of our loved ones from Childhood to Adulthood as enjoyable and safe as possible. It is also true that every family has its own set of values and practices to deal with matters such as this. I have no intention of sitting in judgment on these. My focus would be on providing you with invaluable and timely information, real-life cases, experts views, tools and guidelines. These I believe should be enough to help you in choosing whatever appropriate method as per your values.
Let me sum this up with a Helen Keller quote:
“Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing”.
