help blocking app's on a pc

yeah if it was a good PC...with 96GB of RAM that's equal GBP of a small country
good or bad pc, smashing it is ridiculously over the top and probably isn't sending the child the correct type of message. but everyone parents differently and sometimes a blow out is maybe needed but i'd personally not have went to that extreme
 
Assuming you paid for the pc
That's just hurting yourself financially
More than the electricity he was using

Would just have removed the hard drive
And stored it somewhere he has no access to
Everytime he did it i Would remove the hard drive
For longer period of time
 
I get the frustration, we have 2 girls that push the boundaries so can understand how hard parenting is.

I would probably have just took the PC away though.
 
I wonder where the kid gets the behaviour from.


Also, this is not a problem solvable by technology. Direct action remove the PC don't **** about with stupid tech fixes that can be circumvented. Waste of time.

I think I would have installed Linux on it. At least he can learn a new OS whilst trying to hack his parents.

It reminds me when I was 19/20 and was hacking the phone lines....

i'm starting to think there's a bit of the walter mitty going on here - the chap listed a 'spare' pc for sale in the mm last night. then locked the thread earlier as all sold locally. summat tells me there's porky pies being told somewhere.

No way! Someone lying on the internet. How ever in the name of the wee man can this be true. Say it isn't so.
