Net-illiterate parents 'failing children'

An article this morning from the BBC UK Edition explains that:

"Internet-illiterate parents could leave their children on the wrong side of the digital divide, researchers have said.

Many parents lack the skills to help their child's internet use, a London School of Economics study has said.

It said 85% of parents surveyed wanted stronger laws to clamp down on internet pornography.

And one in five said they did not know how to help their children use the web safely, according to the UK Children Go Online report."
