BBC Radio 4's "You and Yours" programme have just had an item all about children and teenagers using computers. It's prompted me to get "AppTimer.net" available online...
AppTimer.net is a little computer program I've been using with my kids for a few years now.
It helps you to manage how much time they spend on the computer. You give them, say, an hour a day of time on Internet Explorer, and once they start using Internet Explorer AppTimer.net starts counting down the hour. They get a warning when the time's nearly up, and then at the hour Internet Explorer is shut down, and can't start again til the next day.
They'll hate you for a day or two when you install this, so make sure you have a decent conversation with them about why you're doing it. One day, they'll be glad you did it, and they'll thank you. You'll be glad every day, when you actually get a chance to talk to them.
It's still in BETA form (the network communication part of it works but not perfectly), and it's FREE, and you can get it here: http://www.maynardsgroovytunes.co.uk/store/apptimer-net-kids-computer-timer-beta.html
There are more pictures on the website: apptimer.net
Hope it helps - just email via the contact form for support.
This Children's Christmas Carol has been really popular this year - loads of people are searching for it, loads are downloading it as PDF sheet music, and as an MP3 file. I hope you're enjoying it - here are the links you need if you want to listen, or get hold of it:

I've made a small app for our home computers that manages the time the kids spend surfing etc...
