www.peacefire.com is a website that gives you resources to get around this kind of stuff. Kids have the right, as does anyone else, to surf without being watched. Give them that right.

Kids do not have full rights

They are children and are not given the full same rights as adults as they are not tax paying or fully independant.

Case in point, there are dangers online, specifically in chat rooms that kids face everyday. Parents have a responsibilty to protect their children from these dangers and in turning a blind eye, they make themselves and their child vulnerable to these dangers.

If that's what you want to do for your child, fine. But kids do not have a "right" to view anything they want. It is the responsibility of the parents to raise the children. And that doesn't just mean feed and clothe them!
Thanks for the link, I'll add it and any others like it to my "blocked" list.
