Parental Control Cell Phone Blog

There are many reasons why you might want to use an iPhone spy app. We have touched on this subject a few times before, but today we will concentrate on the safety of children and teens. Kids and their iPhones Nowadays, it seems that kids want a phone almost as soon as they are born – and teenagers spend more time on their phone than they spend talking face to face! One other thing that teenagers in particular want – is the latest gadget. This is where the iPhone comes in. If your children don’t want an iPhone right now, they are either two years old – or they already have one. And this is where iPhone spy apps come in. By installing an iPhone spy app on an iPhone, you are able to see where it is at any time, and what’s more you will be able to see who the phone’s user is talking to, and who they are texting. You will even be able to read their emails. Most importantly of all, you will know that they are where they say they are – and will know that they are not in danger. Why buy an iPhone [...]

Litchfield Park, AZ, October 13, 2009 — Retina-X Studios, LLC, announced today the immediate availability of Mobile Nanny, the software that allows parents to monitor and restrict their child’s mobile phone. This software gives parents a safeguard against the overall challenges and dangers of a child having their own cell phone, including sexting. With sexting on the rise, many parents need to know what their child is doing on their cell phone. But simply knowing what they’re doing isn’t enough. Certain activities may need to be blocked. Mobile Nanny allows parents to see everything their child does and block any disallowed activities. Complete text messages, call histories and GPS logs are viewable to parents online or inside an interface on the device itself. The software allows parents to filter out activities they don’t want to happen. The parent can block their child from communicating with specific phone numbers.

Mobile Nanny – a parental control software program for mobile phones which parents can use to restrict or regulate functions on their kids’ cell phones, including turning off functions such as text messaging, restricting which phone numbers can be dialed or receive phone calls from, and even set which hours the phone can even be used. “Until now, the only way parents were able to restrict their kids’ cell phone use was to just take the phone away, putting kids and parents in the uncomfortable situation of not being able to maintain direct contact with one another,” said a spokesperson for the Directory. “With Mobile Nanny parents can now let their kids keep their phones, but restrict features from being used and even set specific times for when the phone can even be used at all. If the child is abusing text messaging features, simply turn that feature off. If the child is making calls late at night, simply restrict calling hours on the phone to daytime only. Is the child receiving calls from people you don’t want them to be in contact with? Just block the phone from getting calls from that number, or restrict calls to that number [...]

Worried

Last week, Nick Lacroce, a member of Susquenita High School in Pennsylvania, wrote an op-ed about a controversy at his school in which a form of sexting was carried out involving videotaping or photographing multiple people doing inappropriate things. It was one of the largest sexting incidents in the state. Ultimately, Lacroce addresses how authorities should handle such controversies. The big question for society is what type of punishment should someone involved in this receive? The law states that if the person possessing the text is convicted, they are accussed of the same type of crime as any pedophile caught possessing child pornography. While most can agree that sexting is wrong and doubly wrong for a minor, the punishment does not fit the crime. A minor convicted of sexting should not receive similar treatment as a pedophile with child porn. Yet the minor could be registered as a sex offender for a period of at least 10 years. It is akin to taking a person with a moving violation and giving him the same sentence as a person convicted of drunken driving. Not long afterward it was reported that Pennsylvania legislators were drafting a bill to address the issue, stating [...]
