My 4.5 and 6 year old use our iPAD often, and so I am starting to investigate about ways to ensure they don't access something inappropriate by accident.
I came across this mums net thread, and I am horrified:

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/child_internet_safety/1128657-do-not-let-your-children-use-this-website

Shouldn't the owners of FACEBOOK by held accountable for checking what people are showing on their site? You cannot expect parents to keen just a close guard on every single page that their children access?

I would love to contact Facebook to know what active steps they are taking to ensure children are safe. Would love mums net to start a campaign.

Does anyone know if there is an initiative of this sort yet?

Well I'm sorry you object to the WTF - but seriously have you heard yourself?

I mean WTF? Grin

How are we supposed to protect the children when there are profanities on a thread such as this activate? Hmm? Grin
