    Young boy search histories are great. I remember when my little brother borrowed my laptop once and when I got it back there was searches on Youtube for “boobs”, “big boobs”, and “big boobs jumping”. Guess he’s a boob guy.

    If you feel the need to search your kid’s tablet, smartphone or PC it’s either too young to have one unattended or you should reevaluate your educational methods.

    If a kid feels like it needs to lie and hide all the it will do so.

    And what are these parents expecting to find? Documents of an international drug cartel? It’s porn, games, questionable videos and memes. You knew that beforehand. Talk to them, make sure they know their various ways to stay safe online, physically and mentally.

    I see what you’re saying but kids don’t always lie out of malice. Sometimes they are just stupid.

    They can’t tell you they are being groomed if they themselves don’t realize it’s happening, for example.
