Computers help students.... is that true?

Computers are getting cheaper nowadays and schools in my country are encouraging parents to provide computers for their children. Is this statement true ? Generally, it is but parents must guide the students to ensure that the usage is not abused. In the first place the parents themselves should understand the power of the computer. I am not talking about the electric power but the influence that the computer can do to the students. When we use the computer we can access the whole wide world. The user is exposed to whatever good or evil that can be found in the world. The most common problem that the computer is exposed to is "sex" and pornographic sites. Responsible parents know that they have to block these sites so as to prevent their children from logging on to these sites. The younger kids are not matured enough to understand that pornographic site can mislead their future lives. So it is very important that parents ensure the safe usage of their children's computers and keep an eye on their usage every now and then.Kids are intelligent and computer savvy. Most parents are educated and are probably using computers in their work place so there is no problem there. But the problem is when the mother is not well educated nor computer savvy or when the mother or in many cases both the parents are very busy working in their effort to find more money. The kids would then be left on their own to do what they like with the computers. Most kids will go for computer games and spend the whole day and night playing games. If they have naughty friends they may be influenced by them and probably log on to porn sites. This is bad for the teenagers who may end up producing unwanted babies. In conclusion I would say that computers are very useful and can help students provided they are guided and regularly supervised by their parents or guardians.

Take a look at this site (not for porn but) for opportunities to earn money from home:>>>
