Answer 1

For Yahoo make sure that you have the "chat log" feature turned on. You can do this through the preferences module. The logs are saved to the hard drive and you can read them when ever you like. I think that AOL has the same feature but I haven't used that in a while.

You can also set you a parental block so that people outside a certain age can not communicate with your child but that isn't all that effective if the person states that they are a teen on their profile.

Glad to see more parents caring about what their children do when online!

Answer 2

Open the Messenger in his name then goto The Contacts Menu and then select Message Archive... then u can know who chatted when...

Perhaps your child should not be on the internet, in chat rooms, in the first place?
