If your kid has access to the internet, then the world has access to your kid, and that's a powerful concept to grasp.

Human trafficking isn't just a problem in far-off places; it's happening right here in our communities. Andrew shares eye-opening statistics and personal stories, revealing how traffickers target vulnerable kids on social media. He clears up common misconceptions about what trafficking looks like and emphasizes the importance of recognizing grooming as a precursor. But it's not all doom and gloom. Andrew offers practical advice for parents on how to protect their children from online exploitation.
He stresses that if your child has access to the internet, the world has access to them. Establishing rules and boundaries is crucial, but building strong relationships with your kids is even more important. Andrew recommends tools like the Bark app to help monitor online activity and keep kids safe. The episode also delves into the recovery journey for trafficking victims. Andrew highlights the work of F.R.E.E.
International in providing trauma-informed care and advocacy, and underscores the need for legal action to prosecute traffickers. This episode is a must-listen for any parent or guardian. It's a wake-up call to take action and safeguard our children from the hidden dangers of human trafficking.
