🚨 Child sexual exploitation is a hidden global crisis, affecting every country. It’s been ignored for too long. Today, we revealed what it looks like—step by step. Stage 6 of 6 – Control 🎯 Now that the sexual abuse is occurring, offenders will use secrecy and guilt to keep the child silent. Victims are often threatened with blame, anger, ending the relationship, or upsetting others such as parents or family members. Fear of humiliation or getting in trouble also keeps them hidden in the shadows. This #GivingTuesday, help us fight back and protect children online. Your support helps us stay ahead of threats and create a safer world for all. 🚨 Give Here: https://lnkd.in/eHTmApdJ #OnlineChildSexualExploitation #OnlineSafety #onlinesafetytips #OnlineSafetyMatters

🚨 Child sexual exploitation is a hidden global crisis, affecting every country. It’s been ignored for too long. Today, we'll reveal what it looks like—step by step. Stage 4 of 6 – Isolation 🎯 By this stage, the offender has been grooming the victim for quite some time and a relationship has been formed. This “special connection” is further reinforced when the offender convinces the child that they love and appreciate them more than anyone else…even parents. Sometimes parents can unknowingly feed into this through praise and appreciation of the relationship that is secretly becoming more and more inappropriate.

Stage 3 of 6 – Fulfilling Needs 🎯 Once the offender has identified a child’s needs, they will try to be the “hero” to the child who gives them what they desire. This causes the child to see them as highly important and even idolized. They won’t want to upset them in risk of not getting the void in their life fulfilled.
