Keylogging

My Oldest Princess is 12 years old. She also loves the internet. I'm not ashamed to admit that we, as her parents, have put restrictions on her online activities. We've also considered using a keylogger to track where she's been. We do trust her, but we also love her. Love her enough to be concerned for her online safety.

I had an online friend who was using a keylogger for her daughter and discovered that she was chatting with older people, going to sites that were not appropriate for her and giving out way too much personal information. They also discovered that she was "cutting" herself. Because of the keylogging, they were able to get her the help she needed.

I think there is definitely a place in the internet world for a keylogger.
