This is the case not only with website but with everything which teaches us good and bad things in life like tv also. There are always good and bad things what matter is that how you look at it. Same way internet got both taste for every human. under 15 can learn many things from it as they are on the growing stage but you should have a vigil on that, they should take it a education.

I would say it really depends.......some the kids these days are quite mature and they know what they are not supposed to do, but a majority of the lot don't really know what they are supposed to do.....and what not......so i feel some kind of parental interference is necessary.......they should put in some parental lock software's which are available in the market where they could monitor what they are viewing a dn what not.....they could even do some pre-controlled settings of the sites which a X rated and can block them instantly.....

Internet is what you make it for the most part. Anything, even seemingly innocent things, can be harmful. It is up to the parents to help the children with guidance and supervision so that the internet is a useful tool and is not a detriment to thier child. TV is really the same way, when left to kids to decide when, where, what and how much to watch it gets completely out of control. When my children were younger, I kept the computers in a common place where someone was always around. that way they never knew when someone might come through the room or just be sitting there reading or what not. It is a wonderful tool if there is proper supervision... that's what I think!
