    Much of what is dangerous about TV lies in the commercials, not in the shows. Granted, there are many inappropriate TV shows out there, but if one chooses a “clean” show to watch online, one can watch without fear of the show being interrupted by “racy” commercials.

    I think you have greatly overstated your point. YouTube is not a “virtual brothel” and if I had a 3-year-old I would certainly permit him or her to watch videos on YouTube. Of course, not everything on there is appropriate, but one has to rely on self-control not to click those links.

    Re time monitoring, when I was younger my parents used to set a timer every time my brother or I sat down at the computer. It would go off exactly thirty minutes later so that we couldn’t give the excuse that we were wrapped up in our game and forgot to check the clock. Even if these games were mindless, they were not inappropriate as our computer also had parental control software installed, and through this system we could each waste only thirty minutes per day.
