Library computer users viewing porn anger parents:
Kimberly Romie, whose Piedmont Homeschoolers Association members have increasingly complained about the problem, said some parents have stopped taking their children to the library.
“We’re talking about some really hardcore, gross stuff,” said Romie, who had three such experiences at the library and has heard similar accounts from other parents.
“My total issue is that it should not be allowed. Someone cannot stand over them the whole time. A child or a mom is going to end up walking in on this. And once you see it, you’ve seen it.”
Unfortunately, Ms, Romie sort of contradicts herself in the first and second sentences of the last paragraph where she follows “It should not be allowed” with “someone cannot stand over them the whole time”. Unfortunately, standing over them is about the only completely effective means of preventing the problem. Filters don’t work, they never have worked, and they cause far more problems than they solve. I understand her frustration, but other than constant monitoring or getting rid of internet access altogether, how would she propose solving this problem? “Not allowing it” is much easier said than done.
