Question

My child has serious issues focussing on school work. I would like to help her a bit, and am looking for a program that simply does the following. Remotely, from my computer I need to be able to put the internet connection of her computer in 2 modes: work and play time.

In work mode, only a selected (by me) list of sites can be accessed
In play mode, everything can be accessed except for a selected list of sites

Next to "switch to play mode" and "switch to work mode", I also need a button "switch to work mode in X minutes", so that her "break" ends automatically without me needing to be on my computer at that time.

I was wondering what software best to use for this. I've been looking mainly at parental control software (netnanny, qostodio, ...) and productivity software (focalfinder, coldturkey, ...) but none of them offers such functionality. What would you recommend me? If there are routers that have such functionality embedded, that's also an option, feel free to recommend those too.

All computers involved run Windows (7) and bonus points if it can cover her phone (android) as well.

Explanation / Answer

You can check out Child Control 2014 Parental Control for Windows PCs. They say majority of things you have asked. But not entirely sure about the modes. I think it's worth a look. It has a trial period. So you can use it for free for sometime. If you want you can buy it.
