    ParentApproval.com - Making the Wild Web Safe For Kids

    Because the internet is a dangerous space particularly for the young ones, new comer ParentApproval has developed a sort of online safety net. Their Family Safety software implements local authentication meaning parents must approve before their child logs in to or registers with any website; additionally, they'll need approval for all outgoing personal info (e.

    g. age, SSN, address). The app is currently free to download. To get started, parents will need to configure the safety settings adding or deleting keywords pertaining to personal info. They will also need to create a white list of trusted websites which do not require password approval. Children are allowed access to Limited accounts which unlike the Administrator account, doesn't have access to parental controls. Whenever a child comes across an unapproved site and they attempt to register, they'll be prompted for a password. The free download is offered for a limited time only.

    Parentapproval.com In their own words

    "Internet, the WWW, has become Wild Wild Web; a place without cops, making your family vulnerable of various dangers and exploits. We strive to resolve two major issues faced by parents and everyday Internet user. These problems looks complex, but our approach of the resolution is to make Internet Family Safety as simple as possible.
    Our Family Safety software application detects websites seeking personal information. It triggers a passwored approval when any information is send to such websites. It is based on our patent pending method of Local-authentication for web-forms."

    Why Parentapproval.com might be a killer

    This software gives parents peace of mind. By limiting the content a child has access to, ParentApproval assures parents that their children aren't unknowingly venturing into dangerous territory, or giving away sensitive personal info. It appears to be pretty straightforward and simple to implement.

    Some questions about Parentapproval.com

    The problem with ParentApproval is that it requires parents to still be vigilant. They'll have to enter the password each time their kid wants to get into a site. Will parents find this to be too much of a hassle? How will this software compare to other child oriented safety apps?
