Ridgewood NJ, In case you missed it, the parent of a 9-year old addressed BOE members during the public comment portion of Monday evening’s meeting and revealed that her son and one of his classmates were, and still are, able to surf porn and other “age inappropriate” videos using their school issued Chrome Books, via the school’s WiFi network, and during school hours.
BOE members directed Schools Superintendent Dr. Daniel Fishbein to look into the allegations and report back to them.
The parent’s comments begin at 1:02:25 on the linked youtube.
Morgan and Wilson are toast now for sure.
And what say you Dr. Fishbein? You were aware of this but did not inform your bosses? Bye bye O!
Ahh – kids will always find a way…
I’s this really true? Isn’t technology available to prevent this?
The bigger problem is the poor parenting that fostered an environment such that thier 3rd grader to be interested in porn in the first place…

Isn’t that probably How they teach sex ed
The problem is the pop up sites that sometimes are pornographic and violent. Most kids would look as we have trained them to be online 24/7 and use it as an educational mode. There are protections out there but first you have to get the Board and administrators to acknowledge it and budget for these protections.
The protection is to educate kids like Einstein etc were educated throughout the centuries with books and paper and pencils. Bill Gates is VERY SMART. He knows that people are sheep and stupid. So he made billions. BUT his kids learn like Einstein etc. with books paper and pencils. No chrome where his kids go to school. Ha ha Keep buyin the next computer folks and smart phones and be sure to give them to your kids. Don’t worry. They are not addictive. Bill Gates said so. So did Mark Zuckerberg. Good guys.

I work on computers every day for most of the day and also spend the usual computer/device time when not working.
I DO NOT get pornographic pop-ups.

If you are getting pornographic pop-ups it is because you have been visiting pornographic websites.
The ad software analyzes your browsing history and sites visited and serves you up ads that “might be of interest” to you based on your history.

Gen X are the worst parents in history. Blame everyone else and take no responsibility for their demon seed. Trust me….Millenials are not the problem.
