Why not disable access except when the parents are around to monitor? Many of the netgear/linksys routers have the capability of scheduled access times for specific IP addresses. As has been recommended, put the system in a common area of the house and don't allow access unless the parents are there to monitor the activity. Trying to block specific sites and content is at best a losing battle. You would be better off being a parent and cutting off access if/when they break any rules that you lay down.
