mins per session makes sense, but blocking access is called
"censorship".. it's something the chinese are good at.

parents shouldn't worry about what their kids see on the net, they
should worry about how they *deal* with their kids seeing it. If they
seriously think the kids aren't going to see it they are deluded.
