The whole creepy sexual pervert thing gets people all riled up, but most forget that's by far not the most dangerous thing your kids have to worry about online. Finding out your kid flashed the insides of their underwear on cellphone camera to some creep pales in comparison to finding your kid Dead.
There is a large ongoing problem with kids being bullied into committing suicide and very often it's their own peers that are responsible.
Back in the old days, if you had a rough day at school, you could come home and shut the problems out. Today thanks to bad parenting, the kids bring the bullying and torment home with them and stay up all night getting abused by others. It is a much larger issue than people want to talk about. Do your own research and go watch the videos the kids make detailing their torment before they kill themselves. Young people these days are fully capable of springing into very vicious packs and trying to actively destroy their peers for just about any reason or none.
The parents are always later on talking about how they didn't know their kid was in trouble, and why didn't the school do something. Somebody should ask them, "When was the last time you carefully checked all your kids social media and cell phone texts and "instant" messaging platforms, e-mails, call & text logs".
Again, don't assume that just because they are talking to other "children" they are safe. Children can be just as evil as adults, especially in packs.
If it sounds good to go kill a creep trying to get pictures of kid's underwear, then what should we do to those mobs of kids hounding one of their peers into killing themselves?
One of my all time favorite make you think episodes of the series Black Mirror was:
Hated in the Nation where someone who lost someone decides to teach all these online bullies acting all tough from the safety of their phone screens while calling for people to die, or kill themselves, a lesson that the country would never forget.... of course they were portrayed as the criminal, but perhaps they really had a point.
That is of course before we get into the really truly scary truly satanically evil folks like the ones that run that "Blue Whale" "game" stuff in Russia and Europe, where they actually use fairly detailed psychology and physiology to see how many young people they can get to kill themselves just for the "sport" of running up a body count.
