Parental Controls Over Internet Access Sentry Total Family Protection is able to filter and block any website with inappropriate content from your child. Sentry enables parents to select, from a list of categories, the type of content to block. From pornography to social networking sites, Sentry offers parental controls over what websites your child can visit. When Sentry finds that a user has been behaving inappropriately, it will send the parent an email or text-message alerting them of the inappropriate activity. Dependent upon the settings, Sentry can block the website from being seen, take a screenshot of the website, or take no action at all.
