That is not necessarily true. It won't matter to the survey generator whether or not an answer to a question is truthful or not--If there is a statistical correlation where productive people say that they like jogging, then the survey generator would calculate in favor of people who simply said that they like jogging. Whether or not any of those people actually do like jogging doesn't matter.
I'm not even going to deal with the issue of whether kids are "entitled" to rights of privacy or not.
However, the simple fact is that if you raise your kids with trust and openness, they will grow up into a healthy adult. And if you don't overprotect them (although that is a very subjective term) then they won't be shocked when they actually do enter the real world. "What? The internet isn't just for trading recipes? OMFG!"
"Raising you kids with trust" goes both ways. If you told your kids not to go to a site, and then you checked later to make sure that they didn't, that's pretty easily conveying the message that you don't trust them. Same with monitoring their chats. And everything you try to do has a good chance of being bypassed by your kids anyway. So you demonstrate that you don't trust them and they get past all of your clever "protection"--no one wins there, no matter which way you look at it.
Let's say that your kid does see some porn site. And not just any porn site, but one on the far end of the spectrum of sexual activites--a horse having sexual relations with a clown, for example. If you simply talk to your kid and tell him or her that that is NOT normal sexual behavior, they will understand. Well, they'd probably ALREADY understand that that particular case is a bit off anyway, but that's not the point...
I don't know about you guys, but I've been to a couple of sites where finding the support or contact number is nigh impossible. That support call rate could be high or low, depending on how easy it is to find that support number in the first place.
