Parental Controls - Shell Energy Broadband

jkarlsen

Beware Shell Energy Broadband - they have NO parental controls. I realised this on Day 1 of the service, but Shell Energy won't let me leave without paying a full year - this means there is NO WAY to set the router to block !!!!!! sites - not ideal if you have teenagers. Any suggestions?

They are teenagers so if they decide they want to look at adult content then they will find a way whether you setup parental controls or not. The fact that you have to ask this question shows that you will not be able to effectively set it up to stop them finding that kind of content anyway.
Parental controls only work well for young children to protect them from unintentionally coming across that content or searching for it and not really realising what it is. They will never stop a teenager who is intentionally looking for that content due to the many many ways they can find it.
