internet age parenting

When the media announced about the Singapore government's plans to build an integrated in Sentosa which included a casino in the plan, it sparked a controversy public debate. While the plan was intended to benefit the tourism of the country, others are concerned about the negative effects on the social end. Some parents were worried about the wrong influence it would cause on their children and young teens. But what about the TV programs and other media influence?

Parenting remains challenging whether or not there is a casino in the city. I believe it's the parents' responsibility to educate their children on what is acceptable and what is not. Parenting today requires openness and dedicated guidance, not a bunch of "dos" and "don'ts". Wouldn't it be worse if they rebel and do things contrary to what you have been teaching if they are not shown the reasons of things. In other words, if you spend time educating your children, you don't even have to spy on them or worry about them checking out online casino bluebook which shows the popular online casinos in the web. The free online guide is a resource stop for those who want to know more about the online gaming scene with full description included. Online gamers can check on the top ten sites to place their bets. I recalled my Las Vegas trip some years back where I was thrilled to win some cash on the jackpot. That was just recreation fun during the vacation.

While we can't stop our children from being exposed to media and social influence, all we can do is spend more time with them, encourage feedback and open communication and inculcate good values in them.
