To change DNS or write a registry key, you need to be administrator, if the kid is administrator, nothing can block him!!! If he’s not, this solution is very good!!

This is for the dumb kids, and there are plenty of them out there.
For the smarter ones, you just tell them that they will get the crap beat out of them if you catch them changing the DNS settings. Or simply don’t let them have a computer that they can use privately.

What prevents the kiddies from simply changing the DNS back? (unless you make sure they only have access to a limited account.) At least if you have to install something to use as a proxie or you set the content advisor in IE, there’s a possibility of having a password that would be needed to override it (yes, I know disabling content advisor is simple by deleting a registry key but that’s still harder to find/do than to change some dns numbers back.)
