macintosh tip: Parental Controls

The mac has actually a lot of really great parental features built right into the operating system. No need to buy any other software.


Some nice features include:

• create an email safe list (kids can only email people that you appove for their address book)
  
• Approve the buddies (kids can only chat online with people you approved to be on their buddy list)
  
• Safari Parental Controls (Specify exactly which websites your children access by bookmarking only those sites on the Safari Bookmarks Bar)
