I understand your concerns Lisa.

And I don't mean to stray off topic but it concerns the use of VoiP and the dangers to kids.

No one put the player and his parent knows the player's age. Disney can't magically detect the age of a random family member who decides to play at a given time and therefore can't automatically adjust the filters.

Parents should be monitoring their kids use of the computer, particularly with younger children. If a parent is concerned about what their kids are exposed to then they should not only set up the game filters but should have also set up personal pc filters.

Parents can set up administrative control of their pc's using a password that is not obvious to the children (that's how I make sure my grandson can't open up programs on my pc without me knowing) and then set up individual accounts with specific paramenter for each User.

But then they must remember to follow the rules that we are all given regarding passwords...Don't Write Them Down. Make it something you would remember, but they would have no clue about.

As to VoIP, most of us are just using it to chat about the things that well we just wouldn't want to put in open chat. (I mean who wants to tie up game chat with stuff like upcoming surgeries, the new recipe we found, how much rain we got yesterday, and yes... for some of us joking and kidding.)
