“Ms. Cofield, a retired government tax agent who runs an online travel business, chose a tool called uKnowKids.com, which combs the granddaughter’s Facebook page and text messages. uKnowKids sends her alerts about inappropriate language. It also offers Ms. Cofield a dashboard of the child’s digital activities, including what she says on Twitter, whom she texts and what photos she is tagged in on Facebook. It translates teenage slang into plain English she can understand: “WUD” is shorthand for “What are you doing?” Ms. Cofield checks it daily.”

PCWorld: Rated 4/5 Stars
"For any parent, the Internet-and all its related devices-can seem like the lawless wild west. But bringing order to the chaos is a little easier with a service like uKnowKids.com, which monitors your child's social network, mobile phone activity, and GPS location. uKnowKids.com (various pricing, starting at free) de-livers a useful overview of your child's online behavior, while also alerting you to problematic activity. uKnowKids.com compares favorably to its competition."
