Thanks for your response. Please note that I do not want to put any restrictions but like to see the activity log or end of the day I would like to get a usage report. Let me know if there is any thirdparty software available if out of the box doesn't provide.I trust my son but again wanted to make sure he is on right track and using his system in a right way.
