Computer Parental Control Solutions from the Mikko Que

It's undeniable that being computer savvy in today's high-tech world is important, even for children. But there are also a number of pitfalls that can arise from excessive use of the computer and ineffective Internet control. Even though the World Wide Web is an excellent tool and resource for researching school projects, completing homework, playing games and having fun, children can become hooked on the Internet and become argumentative at requests to finish chores or homework, go to bed, etc. That's why effective computer parental control solutions are important and necessary in teaching children responsible media and time management skills.

That's where the innovative Mikko Que can help. While still allowing children to learn to respect the various forms of technology in the home, the Que's effectiveness as a computer parental control also helps children learn to budget their time and practice responsible media management. No other product on the market offers this level of Internet parental control, as well as the ability to monitor and regulate screen time on other media and entertainment devices like the TV and video games.

Here's an example of how the Mikko Que functions as an effective computer parental control solution: Let's say you program your daughter's TimeKey with two hours of allotted Internet usage between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. When she wants to use the Internet, she plugs her TimeKey into the Mikko Que, starting the clock. Visual and audible warnings will alert her when her time is almost up, and when the clock runs out, the Que's function as a computer parental control device kicks in. The Internet connection will be disabled, but the computer will not be powered off, preventing any possible damage caused by improper shutdowns. .

Or, for instance, let's imagine your child has a TV in his or her bedroom that is connected to a Mikko Que, and a bedtime of 11:00 p.m. Rather than argue over "just five more minutes," when your child's allowed TV time is up, the TV signal will be blocked. Time for bed!

As you can see, the Que works as much more than just a useful computer parental control device – it can also help parents monitor and regulate the other technology in their home.
