How come everytime i get on the pc my ( 9 month old) son starts yelling and smiling and runs right over (in his walker) and tries to get to the pc , tugging on my leg saying "dadadada". I pick him up he tries to type and move the mouse and touch the screen. :D

// it is sooooooooooo cute . I see his future carrer already! He loves when football comes on to! :D :lol:

Oh man do I know what you mean. I have a 4 year old and a 1 year old (both boys) and I can't undo the velcro strap in my laptop case without causing them to come-a-runnin.

My 'Favorites' are now dominated with Nick Jr., Sesame St., Playhouse Disney, et al.

At least they're not into Barbie dolls. (:

they're not old enough to need a filter....yet. my house is set up for wireless (of course) so the oldes one can sit at the kitchen table where I can keep an eye on him. (:

it's amazing how quickly they acquire the skills to surf. the youngest one is already starting to grab the mouse and watch the cursor.

Haha you never know though. Wasn't there some guy that registered thousands of domains of common typos kids would type while trying to goto their sites (i.e. http://www.disney.com:www.dsiney.com) and weren't those sites he made porn sites? I heard he made ALOT of money but got sued a buncha times and lost it all. Serves him right.

Hehe, I visited there by accident during the Clinton years when I was still studying history and gov. They didn't have the warning page then either. What an eye-opener. :shock: :wink:

It is very sad the amount of bad stuff on the internet that kids can access so easily.

Yes, I didn't mean to make light of it with the White House thing. Anyway, the guy who misled kids to adult sites was charged under a new law here in the US and is headed off to jail in addition to millions in fines.
