Hi there… I have been on the 10-14 board for some time and I am looking to expand my net of opinions.

I would like to know.. as I am pretty new to the “instant messaging” world….
dd just started this about 4 months ago.. and she is 13.5..
we just got a high speed cable…. to allow us this “option”

1) do any of you parents check on your kids emails &/or instant messages?
2) does you kid know that you are checking? and if yes … how do they
3)how do you check on them.. with a program? or somewhere in the computer history , and if so where ??
4) lastly… have you found anything out.. on the programs that you would not have found out .. eventually???

thanks.
