Not every predator wants the same thing from your child. It’s called sextortion. A predator uses an explicit image of a child as a weapon, and what they want tells you which kind it is: •Sexually motivated: they want more images. It most often targets girls. •Financially motivated: they want money. It most often targets teenage boys. •Sadistically motivated: they want to see a child suffer, and they push kids to hurt themselves or others. Every one of these predators is counting on your child staying silent. So have the conversation, even if it’s awkward. Tell your kids: “If this ever happens, come to me. No matter what.” The moment they tell you, the predator loses. Get the tools to start that conversation:
