Kids and Internet

As Internet become main communication and also entertainment tools ,it lures more group of people especially children who naturally have more curiosity to discover new things ,and Internet has plenty of good and bad things for them . So ,there is always concern about bad thing for children on the Internet . According to survey by Symantec lab ,children spent about 11.4 hour per week in 2010 which is 10 percent more than last year that shows children have been absorbed by Internet attractiveness.

According to another study in New Zealand, more than one third of New Zealand children have seen violent and nude image on the Internet ,while New Zealand parent are more concern about their children online habit (84 per cent compared with 71 per cent worldwide).I believe that it is serious concern which needs not only do parents pay attention to their children's online behavior,but also governments have to find an implement a proper solution for overcoming this problem.
