[QUOTE="LadyFreya, post: 684607, member: 59967"] Wow! Thank you for all the advice! I went to class and came home to answers which is a fantastic feeling! I agree that I am not sure about knowing everything my children are saying, on the other hand they are not at a fair advantage when older frustrated men are approaching my 9 and 13 yr old girls. This does feel like an ethical dilemma, but not quite like reading someone's diary vs public forum and I do believe that freedom should be granted for children if they are not in trouble (I have never understood why we believe in innocent until proven guilty for everyone but our children). Parental controls do not work, because these kids will go elsewhere. Experimentation is somewhat necessary to be a teenager, safety is my responsibility as the parent. So for now, eblaster stays on their computers. Yes, I do have a spouse who is jealous of my computer. Previously he was my IT department, and well no w I have downsized to my mac and me! This of course provides us with more time to do important things rather than deciphering error codes or restarting to resync my palm. This is an advantage for all of us. I am glad to know eblaster is only for windows. I have not installed windows or parallels yet as I am not sure I want/need them?? Will keep you all posted on success of mac with telescope and camera.
