This week I'm sitting down with the founder of Child Rescue Coalition), Carly Yoost, talking all about how to keep your kids safe online.
Listen guys, this is a big, heavy topic, and it is hard to talk about. But you will be shocked--or not--to hear that predators are targeting children just about everywhere there is an internet connection--from social media, to gaming platforms, and more.
The technology her group has developed has so far helped law enforcement to rescue over 3,300 children from sexual exploitation and abuse, and has resulted in the arrest of over 14,300 predators, often including those in positions of trust.
Carly runs us through all the things parents need to know to keep their kids safe, including:
The exact things to tell kids to say if strangers contact them online
How predators find and groom kids
How CRC technology works to identify predators
How, and if, the law is catching up with properly sentencing predators
Why you should "pause before you post" your kids online
The platforms predators most commonly use to contact and groom kids
The biggest hurdle in preventing exploitation
