All due respect, parents need to take the time to communicate to their children about social network’s shortcomings. They need to have some familiarity on how to use the different social networks. Using a social network essentially requires the use of your real name and identity; many people often post excessive amounts of personal data including their daily habits and locations.

More and more parents are keeping tabs on their children by using Facebook, and a recent study reports kids are becoming aware of their parent’s meddling into their social media activities.

Imbee is aiming to be the Pandora for kids as well as the Facebook alternative for kids 8-14. Kids definitely need an alternative to Facebook, and imbee might be the answer.
Available in the cloud at no cost, GoLiveCampus.com allows parents, students and teachers to safely search for relevant videos. The site dynamically pulls content from YouTube and social networking sites through a robust safe search.
