🚩The most convincing “kid” online might not be a kid at all.

Talking about online safety with kids and teens matters because not everyone online is who they say they are.

Los menores no tienen la capacidad de consentir. En el entorno digital, esto es una realidad que no se puede ignorar.

La explotación infantil en línea ocurre cuando adultos manipulan, engañan o presionan a niños y adolescentes para obtener contenido o establecer contacto inapropiado. No es un “juego”, no es “curiosidad”: es abuso.

Para prevenirlo, todos tenemos un rol:

👀Supervisar
👂Escuchar
🤝Educar
🚨Actuar

La protección de nuestros niños es una responsabilidad compartida. La prevención comienza en casa, pero se fortalece en comunidad.

Not everyone online is who they say they are.

The Kendall Carter case shows how #FakeProfiles are used to manipulate and harm teens.

Friendly chats, shared interests and “same age” claims can be red flags. Learn how to spot them: 🔗 https://t.co/HrNobLv9bV
