at what age would you let your child openly surf wikipedia..

You have no problem with kids seeing potentially anything ? because thats what it is..

Its not a hard concept. if it can be edited anywhere by anyone LIVE then ANYTHING could be on it.. Think of the worst thing you could possibly think of.. Thats what any child could and most likely will see.

Its like giving kids access to google ..

I think I?d rather go with choice A.
or use some common sense , have a closed network with no access to unmonitored outside sites.. period .

Sorry i dont take the "thats the best we can do " option. I take the " my method actually works and doesnt hurt kids"

Spend what they do in a week in iraq/afghanistan on the kids for a year they would have plenty of money to have network mods..
