Parents Online
11/17/2002 |
Report | Katherine Allen Lee Rainie
Seventy percent of parents with a child at home use the Internet, compared to 53% of non-parents. These parents are more enthusiastic than non-parents about technology and its benefits and are strong believers that their children need to master computers and the Internet in order to get ahead in life. At the same time, wired parents are less fervent Internet users than non-parents. For instance, online parents are less likely than wired non-parents to use the Internet on a typical day and parents spend somewhat less time online during an average day than non-parents
