I would like to keep tabs on my teenaged daughter’s internet access. As a teenager she is curious and eager to know about many things, which are not right for her age. I cannot exercise direct authority on her as this leads to friction between us. How can I keep a watch without her coming to know about it?

If you don't want to be a responsible parent then don't. Just what are
you going to do should you find you she is visiting inappropriate sites?
That'll just cause more friction and you are desperate to avoid that.

You're worried about friction with a teenaged girl? That's mandatory with
teenagers. The approach is simple: either she does what you say or she
doesn't use the PC. Period. The PC should be in a public area of the house,
not in a bedroom or den where people seldom enter, She must give you the
credentials for any account she sets up on line and that she should be aware
that you _will_ be checking them to make sure nothing untoward is ever posted.
Tell her as well that those accounts will be terminated if you ever find
anything you don't like.

A household is not a democracy and not everyone has the same rights and
privileges. It's a parent's job to protect a child until that child is old
enough and has the tools for self-protection, no matter how unfair the child
thinks it to be.

klayerjimi,

You can't. If you don't want her to know what you are doing, then
do nothing.

If you want to do something, you are looking in the wrong place.
There is no software configuration that will assert your parental
authority, stiffen your backbone, or bend your daughter's behavior to
your will. That's strictly your call.

Regards,

Leonard Agoado
