Online Exploitation of Children

  • These individuals use tactics to gain children's trust, such as creating fake profiles, pretending to share common interests, and sending friendly messages to build a relationship.
  • Once they establish a connection, they may start asking children to do things they wouldn't normally do, making it harder for children to recognize the danger.

Protection from Online Exploitation

  • Children should be cautious of strangers online, even if they seem friendly at first.
  • They should never share personal information with strangers online and be cautious about accepting friend requests or messages from unknown people.
  • If they feel uncomfortable or scared, they should talk to a trusted adult for support and guidance.

Role of Parents

  • Parents play a critical role in keeping their children safe online.
  • They should have open and honest conversations with their children about the risks of interacting with strangers online and set clear rules about internet use.
  • They should also monitor their children's online activity and be alert of who they're talking to and what they're doing online.

Importance of Awareness

  • Both children and parents need to be aware of the dangers online and take steps to protect themselves.
  • By working together and staying on guard, children and parents can help protect against the dangers of online exploiters and keep everyone safe while using platforms like TikTok.
