Monitor Your Household's Online Activities?

Already in place

I don't have children, but am a high-school teacher. As someone who deals with 25+ children per lesson with laptops fitted with such filtering technology, I can honestly say two things:
a) Children, especially teenagers, are much better at circumventing technology than adults are at designing such technology. Currently they're using usb-sticks to share content they've downloaded from home/internet cafe's/smart-phones.
b) It's much easier to be computer-savvy and actually monitor the uses children put computers to.
Common tricks kids/teenagers tend to use are in order of increasing tech-savvy: set up their history so that there is always an innocuous site one click backwards; fast use of minimise keyboard shortcuts; quick ctrl-tabs to switch between maximised windows (top window then hids all the windows below); set the toolbar to autohide so window titles are hidden; open lots of windows so that the toolbar only shows a grouped "Internet Explorer" and not site-titles; use Google-cache to bypass site-based filtering software; use of anonymous proxy sites.

Most effective method of controlling such behaviour as a teacher: "Use the computers appropriately or you're logged off, two warnings only. No I don't care if this is for an assignment, if you're mucking around, you're not doing your assignment, and someone else can use the computer."

The Fact is, with the minimal privacy we allowed these days, It would take a supreme court overruling of the entitlement of privacy which now stands at only in your own home; however, you are not entitled rights as a child, and are property of your parents, and thus they may raise you as they wish, and that keeps us where are now, for parents to exercise their personal discretion. I'm against censorship one hundred percent..

Hey, seems like most of us WANT to monitor our network when we have kids. hahaha, so the next generation of parents must be pretty controlling after all.

We will see if the lawmaker will do something about that.

no need for that at this point of my life... maybe later when I have kids.

I hate sharing computer with anyone. So I rarely have to use any monitoring software. But even if I do, my primary concern will be monitoring external hacker activities, not my family's activities. I guess it is too easy for me to say now because I don't have kids yet.

No. I trust my partner will not do anything illegal and indecent online. But when I have kids, I might do it.
