It would be really nice to know that British kids are taking their Internet safety seriously as a latest survey has suggested that they want adults to supervise them every time they are surfing the web.

Out of the total children who were surveyed, near about 45% agreed that adults should sit next to them or at least be near so that they could see what is being surfed over the web.

Other than this, two out of three suggested that pornographic sites and chat rooms on the web should be blocked or filtered.

The survey was conducted among 686 children aged between four and 20. Quarter of respondents held the opinion that in order to prevent children from falling for paedophiles, they should be taught basic internet safety.

Dr Roger Morgan, director of children's rights for England said, "The message here is simple - children are taking their Internet safety seriously, but many clearly don't feel confident that they can protect themselves on their own."

He added, "They want adults to take a greater role in overseeing their web use and to be told exactly what is safe, so that they are better prepared to steer clear of unsuitable sites."
