If one doesn't consider that a malicious use in the first place. There are certain values that should be passed on to a growing child, both moral and practical; distrust of strangers and respect for privacy are two examples of such. If a parent feels that his/her child is of a mindset that is vulnerable to Internet predators, then the solution is to fix that mindset, not to abuse his/her power to take control of the child's Internet activities. There are predators offline too who would attempt to take advantage of that mindset, and no matter how hard one tries it isn't possible to keep one's child out of all possible situations where they might come into contact with such a person, short, perhaps, of locking said child in a large steel room and never letting him/her out.parents use keyloggers in an attempt to see what their kid is doing while on the net. It offers more security than just watching the child over his/her shoulder, because it has the appearance like no one is watching, when really every stroke of your fingers is being logged, and then accessed by the other person. I believe this was the original intent for "keyloggers", but was adapted for malicious use at a later date.
It's the difference between giving a starving man a fish or a fishing net. The fish might fix this one particular instance of the problem, but it's liable to come up again, perhaps when the benefactor is not there to provide another fish. The fishing net gives the man the ability to solve the problem by himself, thus eliminating the problem entirely.
