To Parents
PLEASE do not allow your children unsupervised access to these sites. While they are pre-approved and have no harmful or objectionable material contained in them, internet pop-up adds do contain links to many websites you would not approve of. Many of my approved sites also contain links to other sites that may then contain links to something you may find objectionable. Thank You.
