Study: 70 Percent of Teens Hide Online Behavior from Parents

If you suspect your teen is up to some sneaky stuff on the Internet, you’re probably right.

A new study by security software maker McAfee found 70 percent of teens hide their online behavior from their parents; 42 percent of the teen surveyed checked out violent content online and just under a third surfed for porn.

About one in 10 teens hacked into social networks or email accounts, and about the same number had a face-to-face meeting with someone they met online.

 McAfee says clearing the browser history is the number one way teens hide their online behavior from adults.
