With summer vacation about to start, another software application designed to help parents protect their kids online becomes available . Start-up tech firm, Schakra, which makes third-party social network applications, is introducing GoGoStat Parental Guidance. This free Facebook app is designed to help parents monitor and set rules for their childrens’ use of certain features of the popular social network.
“We all know by now that the Internet and social networking sites can be extremely risky for children and teens, yet there’s an immense draw for them to participate,” says Bala Balabaskaran, Schakra’s chief software architect. “Allowing parents to define their own ground rules and monitoring criteria sets the stage for an honest dialogue with their children on social media usage.”
