Hashem gave the chochmah, the wisdom, to create the Internet just as He gave the chochmah to develop life-saving drugs and other aspects of our lives that are positive. Rather than ban the Internet, instruct your children how to use it responsibly. I think the problems arise when people who have been deprived of it suddenly discover it and just don’t know how to deal with it. By separating themselves completely from the outside world, they are as ill prepared as children who have not been vaccinated and are open to disease. No one can deny there are problems out there, but you pretty have much to look for trouble; better to learn what’s right and wrong rather than reject this gift from Hashem.
