A 13 year old should get the real deal

At 12, you're kid isn't a child anymore, he's a teenager. He is in high school or will be soon and will see most of the things you're trying to hide from him (most probably sex). .. And he should probably be trusted to go on the real Internet. I know that step can be very scary for a mom (the part where you realize that he's old enough and doesn't need protection anymore), but its part of life. I was on the real internet at his age (parental controls hadn't been invented yet) and I turned out just fine.
