This morning was really trying for me. I really had to consider that perhaps I've done my child a disservice by allowing her to play with my iPhone without asking what she's doing. She's got a lot of games and picture programs that she can play with and has used youtube to look up Hannah Montana , cats and Gummi Bears videos. I have never had reason to believe she'd see anything she shouldn't have been. Maybe I shouldn't be so naive about these things. The internet is a big place and it's easy for an adult to get lost in it or stumble on something they don't want to see. Of course that's easy for a child! We had a talk and she was worried she was in trouble. I explained to her that my job is just to keep her safe and teach her about things and that she can always tell me the truth without fear that it's the wrong thing to do. The talk was good and by the end of the morning she was all smiles again but wow. Lessons for kids AND parents!
