How to Block Access to Adult Content & Websites on iPad Safari

Pornography is a big problem for those of us who have children. Since smartphones and tablets have become a major part of our children's lives, especially from a younger age, it's easier than ever for them to find themselves on websites that offer adult content.

Of course, the studies clearly show that this can be a problem. Access to adult content, including gambling sites and violent material, has been proven time and time again to affect the mental well-being of children whose minds are still developing.
