Please help! Urgently need to set up parental control/filter


Recommended Posts

Hello


I thought I'd sorted this but my daughter has been accessing inappropriate content on her Nexus tablet - she has google chrome on it and has been accessing inappropriate websites on searches through this as well as inappropriate stuff on you tube. I know there is stuff I can put in her google chrome to filter stuff/you tube stuff but I've sat here for an hour and cannot work out how to do it. If anyone can help and give me a step by step idiots guide on how to do this I'd be so grateful. I feel physically sick at some of the things she's seen. She's been looking at stuff secretly after I've put her to bed. Needless to say her tablet is confiscated until this is sorted. Thanks so much

I use OpenDNS (it's free) and have done for years very reliably. It's very easy to set up the only thing is you need to be able to configure your DNS server which may be too techie for you. You can probably do this on the tablet (and hope your daughter doesn't know how to remove it) or on your router. Most routers - even from ISP's have an option to change the default DNS server.

If you google "Change DNS server " you'll find that someone has written some instructions somewhere.

    • That’s called sticking up for britain   its people who think Brexit is a good thing - even now - that are anti-british   and thick 
    • Yes, I think people who don’t use their food waste bin are less likely to vote Lib Dem or Green or Labour as they think it’s a woke type of thing to do, like solar panels and other renewables. 
    • But we’re not in Canada so why celebrate their recent election? Wasn’t their winner our Bank of England director up until his defection to his homeland of Canada? He caused chaos  in this country with his put down of everything British and his many dismal words about the effects of Brexit on this country.
