Just read an interesting blog by Martin Pluss. He refers to a discussion by Stephen Colins regarding the role of the parent in responsible use of the internet.
Arguing for no censorship and using his own children as an example, he explains that learning about the internet in a safe environment with suitable guidance as a parent is a far more valuable learning experience than just trying to block all that might be damaging.
Computers in open spaces, open and honest discussion, and trust.
A good basis to work from when my kids get to that age.
