Computers are the place for children. This is the place where they can sharpen their agility as well as their abilities. They can learn and make new friends. Whats more, the Internet provides information for homework assignments. So far, so good. But they also need to be protected from the computer-for one thing, so that they dont lose their sense of time and forget to go out and play with their friends once in a while, and for another, because of the dangers lurking on the Web. That's why responsible parents everywhere install Child Control on every computer that their children use.

Child Control keeps track of the time your kids spend in front of the computer. Once their time is up, the computer automatically shuts down and wont start up again-something any kid can understand. Our experience has shown that Child Control verdict is accepted without arguments-there is no debate and no discussion. Another way of looking at it: Child Control gives your kids back time that they are then free to spend in other ways.
