Dear Caren

If you are a parent then YOU should control your kids, not LW programmers.

I suggest to update your kids to patch level 18 or higher so that they're responsible and can take care of themselves.

Default Parental controls

I agree that there should be parental controls. Downloading music is great, but you can also download videos of porn. As a parent, I can prevent my kids from visiting certain websites, but can't prevent them from downloading of porn off limewire. People with kids shouldn't be able to enjoy music???

Do you have knives or alcohol at home? Can your kids reach those?

Dear Libragirl188213

You say you can't stop you kids downloading porn, the mere fact that you know they're doing it shows that you could stop them if you wanted to.

Password protect your PC and only let the kids use it when you are there, simple enough to do and it puts you in charge.

You make the assumption that p2p is suitable for kids - why?

Do some reading and thinking about P2P before deciding if it's for your kids. In short educate yourself about it then your kids.
