parenting in the digital age


meet safely! 2 whether you're nowwatching me on the pc, notebook, netbook, video,or cell phone, l greet you. lt doesn't even matter,what day it is today, what time it isand actually where you are. lt's very important thatyou found your way to me. what you're going to see now is not a game,not another part of series or a movie. now you can'tshut down you laptop or reach for the remotecontrol and turn it off.

the danger, which isalready around you, can never be turned off. and the only chanceyou have right now, is to be well prepared. we ended the first partof our movie right here - in the server room of seznam. back then l hoped that everything would change and l have to say that it reallyhaven't remained the same.

the reality is much worse,even ahead of us actually. where there is demand,there is also offer. we have severaltens of those cases, there are aroundfifty of those children in the evening andabout ten of hunters. those hunters can actuallyeasily choose who they fancy and who they actually wantto have that evening at home. what you can only guess on the screenare those servers around full of. and if you go to any chator social networking site,

then you can see all of it- that means not blurred. and what really is shocking- except perverts who are tryingto catch you on the web, on those videos and photosyou will find your peers who are fighting for those pervertsand offer themselves to them. we'll get soon to all that they arewilling to do for a couple of crowns. but let's startfrom the beginning. to protect self and be safe- that's actually mainly what's going on both on thelnternet and in the real life as well.

lt doesn't meanthat we have to give up the adrenalinethat attracts us. since childhood we havelearned that before we cross the road we have to carefullylook around. and actually it is exactly the sameon the lnternet. to be safe, it's enough to remembera few simple but important rules. before you befriendsomeone on the lnternet you should make surethat the person really is the onewho he claims to be.

for example ask himto send you a photo with your name andtoday's date written on a paper. lf he does that then you knowthat the person on the other side is the one with whomyou'll chat. and if he has no camera, make him takea photo with his cell phone a send it to you or ask him to showhimself on the webcam. almost everyone hasthese options nowadays. but if he startsto make excuses that it's impossible for some reason,stop the conversation with him.

this person is mostlikely a totally someone else than he claims. this advice is so goodthat even those standing on the other side of the barrierhave adopted it. those, who are willing to pay youfor the nude photos. they're very carefuland they also need to know that they reallycommunicate with you and not for instancewith your dad or the police. and in this innocentand quiet way it begins.

hi, l'm ---, l'mmaking this video for you to believe me thatl'm real. bye marty. who has never experienced this then heprobably doesn't know what kind of fear a parent is experiencingat that moment when you feel a personon the other side that could actually hurt your sonif he wouldn't announce it. workers of the seznamcompany turned to us that they were contacted by a fatherof a fourteen year old boy who was approached on a chat by an adultman who began to entice him to meetings.

fourteen year olddavid is an ordinary boy. most of the dayhe spends at school and because he loves hockey healso spends a lot of time on ice. on the lnternet he looks for information,entertainment and contact with friends. when there was an offer of a part-timejob a few months ago he decided thatit's worth trying. l was online and a manor a boy wrote there, l do not know who it was... so he wrote there if anyonewants to earn some money.

so l told myself yeah,some money would come in handy. so l replied him you know,and then l started writing with him. and you thought it wassome kind of a part-time job? well, only somewhere,maybe something selling. l asked him what is it and hesaid that it's some photo shoot. as l didn't knowwhat he meant, so l wrote to him:what kind of photo shoot? and he was like, some,that he would take some photos of me being somewhere in the woodsor something like that.

l said that maybe it wouldn't bethe best idea in the woods. he looked like someone who takesphotos for living and he wanted to see how did the person who wouldshoot the t-shirts or sweatshirts look. and you thought that it wassomething like commercial photos? well, something like for a magazineor something like that, l thought it could be something special,that l could even become famous. so it caught my attentionand l continued chatting with him. after two weeks of communication he justsaid that he would like to do nude photos. he was writing me,but l didn't react to it.

l just seemed weird to me, l didn't not knowthis man and l wouldn't show myself to him. and was that somekind of a sex chat? no, it was like a normalone for minors that l found there, like for children, or for some fifteenor sixteen years old ones. he wanted firstphotos of me and didn't believethat l was a child. so he kind of wanted to verify it,to take a photo of me. so then l did it but hestill didn't believe me

that it is really me,so then l had to make a video even. that photo was like,that l took a photo of me and wrote on a papermarti and like a nickname which he hadon the chat. and the video was that l shotmyself in the bathroom topless. and didn't you find it strangethat he wanted it to be in bathroom? lt was weird, but he wanted itfrom me like this. so l did like that. - and you still thought it wasfor the commercial, right? - well, yeah. hi, l am ---, l ammaking this video here for you

to believe me that l 'm real.bye marty. the person concerned is very wellprotected in the lnternet's environment in a way that he requiresan immediate response from his victim. he wants the boy to send him some of hisphotos immediately where he wants to clarify that the photo is truly his, is taken on that day at a giventime and he refuses to wait. then it started to seemlittle weird to me so l spoke to my dad and he kind of began to dosomething about it.

l wanted to find outwho is on the other side. so l continuedwith the communication but also turned to the seznamcompany simultaneously with the fact that a pressure on the chatis being done on his son and seznam thencontacted the police. reasons why the police should startdealing with that case are very clear because that adult givesproposals to make a photo shoot with sexualovertones. the one who doesn't announcea crime like this or doesn't spoil it,

is criminallyresponsible as well. so the father did the rightthing that he reported it. absolutely. lt's not about putting awayhis child and being glad that he actuallyreally saved him. one must always be reasoning thatthe other children are endangered. now we received a message from himthat he would like to contact us on skype. he would like to see us and alsohe would show himself to us as well. the man took the bait. during that communication he toldus about himself a lot of things

that will lead to hisfurther identification. and how much moneydid he actually offer you? 2.000 czk. but l don't thinkthat he would give them to me anyway. l'm convinced that if the child'sfirst sexual experiences are actually connectedwith a commercial behavior, sexual behavior for money,then it's very dangerous and it can affect the sexuallives of young people. based on the experiencewe have, we think we think that we couldsuccessfully close the case,

take that person into custodyand bring him to justice. ln a case where we don't manageto catch the offender red-handed and if it is a known offender, than it's actually necessaryto let him know the charge, prosecute himfor what is available and if it is proved that it actuallyis a crime or particularly serious crime than the punishmentfor the crime of sexual abuse is from one to eight yearsin the very first paragraph. l hope in the fact that itwill somehow be managed to end

so that this man won'tthreaten other children. because l thinkthat he's capable of committing things thatl don't even want to think about. david's story isfar from being rare. cases of sexual harassment and dangerousblackmailing of boys and girls on the lnternet increase everymonth and parents, teachers and childrenthemselves turn to the police. nowadays we alsosee cases where the offender falls into beinga rough and violent.

this means that he approaches the childand wants the materials right away. lf you don't givethem to me l'll hurt you. l have the datafrom your computer. lt's important that a citizen,especially parent, teacher, or a person who hasthe children in custody should know that if theyget to know something about what we'retalking about, that means for instanceif there is a suspicion of abused child which leads to the productionof pornography, or sexual abuse,

then he is obligedto report it. although nowadays we can'timagine our life without the lnternet and being onlineis basically normal, we must still rely on the factthat there are people who can moveon the lnternet very easily to get what they want and they are alwaysone step ahead. we call these peoplethe social engineers. social engineering is based on the factthat the one pretends being a child

and wheedles photos out of those minors,invites them to a webcam chat, or somehowmotivates them to send him some intimatematerials or information. then it may happenthat you post on facebook that you're going on vacation and whenyou return your apartment has been robbed. people on the socialnetworks post whatever and of course the kidsdo the same as well. and so the offendermakes an exact picture of who they chat withand he already knows

whom he deals with,where he lives, what he likes, what his friends like, what kindof a relationship with parents he has. such a social engineerhas a sophisticated system that he constantlyimproves. he systematically collects our data,knows our weaknesses, and thus knowswhere to attack. for example, if you write about yourselfthat you like riding a bike, he will certainly communicatewith you as a great lover of cycling. and at the momentwhen you decide to meet him,

you find yourselfon a very thin ice. shortly, one of the mainproblems on the lnternet still remains the fact that wedon't know who do we communicate with. but l want to showyou how to verify one's profile on socialnetworks or other web services. you can verify it in many ways,for example through ''my ld''. that is a service through which youcan log in to various web servers. each user who opensan account ''my ld'' has to go throughseveral levels of verification

to prove that he really exists,and for others it proves that he's reallythe one who he claims to be. lt works in a way that you verify yourprofile through logging in to ''my ld''. then you have an asterisk or othersymbol on your profile which shows that it's verifiedand everyone else who sees yourprofile will be sure that you aren't justsome virtual person. lf you're getting to know someone,than look on the profiles of those who contact youfor an asterisk

or other symbol which showsthat the profile is verified. one of these so called''engineers'' abused many boys. as it turned out,non of those boys was a gay. despite this fact he was ableto abuse them sexually anyway. and that he did it justbecause he liked children a lot? so listen to how he wastalking about them with his friend. we found out that thereis an older man in prague 5 who takes boys into his apartment,gives them some food there, cigarettes and even alcohol.

that he behavesvery nicely, talks to them, studies with them,plays with them, but he basically graduallyadapts them this way up to the level where he hasrequirements for them to do what he wants. he had a sophisticatedsystem and we, of course with judge's permission,tapped his phone. these children who get on the bus,go into different schools, so there is fucking a lot of them,you know. - l see. man wouldn't have to do anythingthan just stand there,

- and hand out cigarettes.- well, just smoke. someone wouldalways appear. they actually felt very wellat his place because he pretty much provided them with everythingthat their parents failed to give them. he was seeking for their textbooks,explaining misunderstood topics and those children enjoyed mostlythe fact that unlike their parents, who just askedthem how was school, while basically not beinginterested in the answer, so all that was reallyinteresting for him.

you could really have a niceconversation with him. and later on when we startedsmoking with the guys, he offered us, gave uscigarettes and over time, like a bit sooner, he gave us,he said, if we want coke then we can add a bitof rum, but no more. - and was it really rum?- lt was rum. once he was on a boathunting sharks and whatever. at home he hada well-equipped bookshelf, and then therewere such things like,

we can say, like artifacts,for instance a shark jaw. - l really had such a confidence in him.- even after you knew that... ? - hmm. - yeah. so you're notafraid of him, nothing like that? no, not at all! he was taking photos of these boyseither scantily clad or even naked. we found even photoswhere they inserted some itemsinto the anus and so. have you everbeen to his place? - yeah, twice. - what were youdoing when you were in his apartment?

- he was telling me something.about football. - about football? he knows a lotabout football? well yeah, he used to belike a referee or something. - who painted this?- l did. . you painted this? and whatdoes it mean? well, because he wanted to knowwhere l have my practices. and what aboutthe phone? - that's my phone. - likeyour cell phone you mean? - yeah. - and what's this?- well, that's when l have the practices.

has he ever done anything which wouldmake you feel uncomfortable? - no, no. - never ever?you couldn't complain about him? - no, he has never done anything to me.- he's a decent man right. all right. this is all in the family,child prostitution, you know. give a grand dudeand l'll lend you my dick. lf not for a thousandthen for a hundred. so he lends you his dickfor a hundred. excellent. and here at your place he drinksa coke with rum, you know dude, in his thirteen,yeah you understand,

cigarettes, beer, yeah. they're just scum.this scum is all around us. like when carcasssticks on to you, dude. you don't comeacross a nice animal. by not rushingand manipulating them like this, he basically started there like...like ancient times, where athletes were naked and youwouldn't probably manage to it right here, l do not know...roll over naked, or do some exercisewithout clothes.

a little bit of alcoholsometimes helped it. he just said that miragave him a blowjob... lt's not probably quite commonin this age to give blowjobs, right? no, but it was okay with me because l was reallyjust chatting with him. did they somehow explainto you why they were doing it? because he gavethem money for it. ln fact, they wereembarrassed themselves for not agreeing with the oralsatisfaction from him,

even if some of themwere later ashamed of having sexwith a man and of course they tried to erasethis trauma out of their life. l cannot even imagine how suchan adult guy can offer this to a boy. can you describe it to me in detail,what did he say to you or in which situation? l don't know how would l describe it... well, hardly would lcome and say pavel: ''lf you blow mel'll give you 10 czk''? or something... that's probably not right,it wouldn't be said like that?

how was it back then?can you remember? he said something about david that he is a cool guy and got used to it so far. so if by chance lwant something as well. how did you react? l said yeah, like twice. - you agreed? - hmmm. and did it happen? unfortunately yes.

- how was he doingit to you? - orally. polã¡äek ended up in policehandcuffs just on time. lt turned out that he hadchosen only a nine year old boy. fortunately he didn't manageto realize what he had planned. he's in prison for abuse of 15 boys. he's imprisoned dueto no self-reflection which means recognizingbehaving badly and illegally, so that the court expertsand the court would order a protective sexologytreatment via constitutional form.

the most dangerous is whenthe child is invited somewhere, that meansinto a closed space. come to me - and then theysay for instance to the studio, we will shoot art photosor something like that. every child should realize this,that when he's invited somewhere where the door shut behind him,then he's really trapped. now l will introduce to youa man who is a pedophile. he has known it about himselffor a long time so far but found the courage to admithis illness and treat self.

to know more who you cancome across on the web, but mainly, to know what hethinks about when he's writing to you and even a little bit of whatis he counting with, he decided to revealhis face. meet mr. m. so the first time l feltit was when l was thirteen. back then l got attractedby young kids and so. ln fact my early diagnosiswas actually pedophilia, l am sexually attracted to littleand teenage girls actually. gradually l began to developsadomasochism.

by that time l didn'tdo anything about it until l turned fourteen and actuallycommitted my first offence. can you tellus what was it? sexual abuse,groping and so. - how old was that little girl?- she was five. miroslav alreadyserved his sentence and now undergoestreatment on sexology. he believes thathe'll learn how to live with his sexual orientationwithout harming children.

his open testimony about whatthe practices on the lnternet are just proves that the pedophiles know howto take advantage of children's inexperience. l have been using the lnternetfor a long time by now. there is actually high intimacy,a real one, anything can happen there. boys and girls can sendanything to each other, intimate photosand so on. so for pedophile it isquite risky to meet someone, but he just cannotbe tracked there. - ls it a paradise?- yes it is, exactly.

do you also knowsome other pedophiles? do you communicatetogether? because l was told that there issome kind of a community as well... - of course there is.- so tell me about it. well there is sadomasochisticcommunity where many pedophileswith this orientation go. l have somecontacts, yeah. some of them are form prague,some from liberec, some from brno. we write to each other all the time,exchanging opinions and so on.

each one extends theircollection of images, we send them to each other,exchange and so on. the very becomming closerto someone who was not yet fifteen, let's say during chatting,has a great value for a pedophile. we began to writeto each other. how school is, what hishobbies are and so on. can you say that this interactionalready kind of satisfied - and excited you?- yes of course. but usually it doesn'tend with exchanging e-mails.

there are girls like,what you offer them, they accept and do pretty muchanything for it. - so for example taking a picturecompletely naked? - exactly! - make some posturesperhaps? - of course. they are just capableof doing anything. you know pedophiledoesn't only have to hunt there. this is how it goesthere by itself. so l had over 300pictures of this kind. does it mean 300 girls?

and you were chargingthem their credit? or how did youget these pictures? yes l was just chargingthem their credit. for 500 czk, 200 czk, 300 czk. how old was theyoungest one there? the youngest onewas nine years old. the offender has a greatpower over the child because he can blackmail himand then force him to action which very often endswith a sexual abuse.

lf you are surprised and maybe frightenedas well with how easy it is for the hunters on the lnternet then you mayconsider holding on to something now. lt is now easier for themthan ever before. even here at seznameveryone knows that a person who wantsto have sex with minors not only doesn't stand by the schoolwith a pack of candies but also doesn't even have to huntchildren on the lnternet himself. now it is enoughfor him to just choose from the range of thosewho offer themselves.

now we will play the old wellknown game: blindman's buff. but blindfolded willnot be any of the hunters who sit by the computer andhunt for their prey on the net. blindfolded willbe some of you. precisely those whoweren't eighteen yet but still, the sex with much olderadult is not unfamiliar to them. maybe they justseek for adventure, maybe they want to discoversomething unknown, but usually theyjust need money.

now for a moment we willpretend to be those adults who are willing to payfor sex with a minor and our one and only conditionwill be for it to happen today already. we wrote politely that we're offeringa quick one-time job for 2.000 czk. that can be any kind of job.we didn't write that we're looking for sex and many people contacted uswith questions about the job's nature - and then we wrote...- lt is actually about sex. from those 20 people thenthree to five contact me that they would be interested in the joband want to know about its conditions.

can one assume that the childrenrespond to the word one-time job with knowing that it'sactually of sexual nature? well it's not very usualthat someone in a room for children would beoffering a one-time job. l think there are totallydifferent web pages for that. so they probably assume that it won't be such an easyjob for those 2.000 czk. lt won't probablybe a mcdonald's job. so, we were contactedby few people.

jarda wrote to us thathe's sixteen years old what kind of photowe want from him? completely naked,of course. 500 czk was his own offer.that is his price for the photo. we are waiting if hereally sends some. did the photo come? the photo just arrived. so, sixteen year old boy just sent us a nakedphoto of himself from his cell phone camera. now, in this moment...

ln this moment l havehis cell phone number. so, l can basicallyblackmail him with this photo and if l like the boy l just send him some photofrom the web and he will continue, maybe even dosome photo series. - he thinks that l am 45 years old.- and that l am a woman? so being a woman l'll writehim that he is very good-looking. - we'll write him if he wouldgo for it... - for how much? for how much?for 5.000 czk.

for 5.000 czk. so, after the offer of 5.000 czk he asksfor a photo of me and that he will see then. eventually hemade up his mind and so we're now standing in a parkinglot in a shopping center and waiting. on the contrary he isexpecting a 45 year old woman and 5.000 czkfor having sex with her. he is standing rightthere because we agreed on a secret signal which wasa black and white scarf. so we're going to ask if it'sreally him and why is he doing this.

hey, hi. can weask you something? - what? what for? - are youwaiting here for somebody? a lady? yes l am. the lady won't come and you won'teven get those promised 5.000 czk. l just want to askyou why you do this. why do you sellyourself for money? wait. and is it a firsttime you are doing this? just come here and tell us.ls it a first time? he risks and risksbecoming a victim.

that he reallywill let himself lure and pay for itwith life or health, or just even that the photowill be misused. even if the guy on the other sidetells them that he's not recording it, he is recording it. he isrecording it and he will spread it further. lt was not a big persuasionand he arrived. by the way we still have that photo of himnaked as well as the cell phone number and now we can startplaying - blackmailing him. however we can also wait couple of yearsand use it at the time he expects it the least.

now we'll try it one more time.this time we won't write anything. we will justwatch and choose. now we're in a room for childrenmonitoring the conversation and just waiting for somegirl to offer herself. so what time is it? lt's halfpast three in the afternoon. how does it look out there?do we see someone already? by the way how do werecognize that she offers herself? so there is a girl writing under nicknamebbarca96: ''someone for now, prague?'' l am writing herhow she means that.

yes, this way we makesure that she means sex? so she replies that it'soral sex in prague right now. either l'll answer heror she'll ask someone else. try to answer her.we're taking the first one. ask her how much would sheprovide us that oral sex for? how much? and thenl'll ask how old she is. so how much shevalues herself? l am waitingfor her to reply. so it's 500 czk in my car.l'll ask her how old she is.

she replies that she'ssixteen and has long blond hair. so we'll answer her that wereally want to meet in about one hour. at andä›l. ln one hour at andä›l? yes. she replies that we'llmeet in front of the entrance. lt seems that barafollowed the agreement and came. lt seems that she'sstanding over there. so we're going to askher couple of questions.

lt seems that it's really her.she has glasses on her cap. l will go ahead. hi, hey you are baräa right? - yep. - we were writing to eachother about an hour ago. ls that right? yep, that's right.but what's the camera doing here? hey don't worry about it.don't worry about anything. our deal is 500 czk,you'll get it ok? hey, l will pixelate your face.we just want to ask you something. ls it possible that you wouldanswer me couple of questions?

- just couple of questions.- well ok. to be leveled with you, we agreed on havingsex for 500 czk. - how old are you actually?- well l'm sixteen. for how long haveyou been doing this? for about twoor three years. about two or three years? - and what do you do exactly?- well that's non of your business. ok sure. but for sure youdo that thing we agreed on.

- how often do you do it?- as oftes as l need the money. l just make a dealand go for it. - well, and isn't 500 czk little?- no, it's enough for me. we block about 30 to 50 of thesepeople every day and one could say that it's mostly at timeswhen they're coming from school and after 8 p.m.or closely to 1 a.m. for about past two yearsit has been a phenomenon which takesan adult by surprise. a girl who looks likeinnocence itself comes

and l've learned to ask herif she has her internet profile and if she canshow it to me. yes she has her profile but it'spassword protected so l will turn around. l turn around,she opens her profile and suddenly you see that a girlfrom 7th grade has erotic photos which can clearly belabeled as pornography and down there it says''hobbies: oral sex, anal sex.'' l say, what do youhave written here? my friends said thatit's normal to write it there.

and now actually you havea victim right in front of you and you start wonderingif not an offender also a little. l'll now introduce patrik to you.lt's not his real name and he doesn't want to show us his face.he has his reasons for it. he also tried it once and offeredhimself on the lnternet for money. he was thirteen at the time.today he's sixteen and he's been doingthis for 4 years already, but the money haven'tbrought him happiness. my whole supply whichl had before has shrunk

- branded clothes, newcell phones, nothing at all. l couldn't goon school field trips, ski courses, engage in anyfree time activity, nothing. and then it actually came to a stagewhen l got bullied at school for being an idiot who doesn't evenhave any branded clothes and so on. and right at that moment l simply toldmyself that l could probably try it, yeah. one evening a man wrote to meif we could meet the next day. he has filled in being33 years old, just a man. he sent me a photo wherehe looked completely normal,

so l just told myself,well why not. so we set up a meetingin a shopping center. and he simply told me that he wouldgive me 4.500 czk for having sex with him. l didn't know when, he said right now.so we went to his home. he told me that he is only attractedby boys around 13 years of age, and that he doesn't think that heis some kind of a pedophile, or so. l was a virgin. after it was like - when l lefthis place for the first time, then l was like, not reallyfeeling downright nasty, or so,

but l just wasn't imaginingmy first time this way. for the first time l thoughtthat l'd like to do it with someone whol really liked. well, that didn't happen,l can't change that. l knew that l would continue doing itjust because l knew... l don't know... l wanted those shoes,l wanted new jacket, l knew that thosecost something. well yeah, it was a nasty feeling.but all the time l had a vision that l would fitin and have friends.

every month l reallyhad about 15 - 16.000 czk. out of that l was giving my mom 5.000 czk,like secretly putting a thousand in her wallet. l don't know if didn'toccur weird to her or what. the relationship with my mom is basicallyat the level of, hi, hi how school, good... like, being more interestedin each other that's not the case. my dad, l haven't seen himsince l was two years old. patrik has been selling himselffor two years. he had the money but his vision of happinessand satisfaction hasn't been fulfilled. when he was sixteen he receiveda hard hit - even harder for patrik

because it came from a clientwho meant to him much more than a stablesupply of money. l really liked him.l'm not sure if l loved him, but l just had this kindof relationship with him. well, and when hehasn't written to me for about three weeksl decided to write him myself. and he simply told meto just go fuck myself and that l was oldalready and so on. at the age of sixteen, patrik hasbeen spending weekends with a client

who had wife and two kids back home.his income decreased by half and the client wouldn'tprobably be interested in him soon. l imagine it like this,when l turn eighteen, l'll try to find somenormal part-time job and when it becomes certainfor me then l'll quit this. one can believein miracles but from the life stories l've seen,it doesn't seem very likely. for example, look among the homelesspeople how many former prostitutes there are and nobody wantsthem anymore.

then they really end upsomewhere literally like a trash. l still sometimes have this feelingthat l'm kind of inferior to other people. like some miserable creature, like some junkieat a train station or something. but on the other handl keep saying to myself that it just isworth the money. lt's very important for himto learn to wake up early, keep on to someregular lifestyle and to start working.

l'm afraid thatl won't like the job itself, there will be less money,right, yeah for sure. and also l'm afraid that itwill keep me from doing something, some other jobthat l want to do. you know, this kind of thingdefinitely influences a person for ever. also probably because of that l may haveruined the relationship with my mother. when l didn't even want moneyfrom her then we totally alienated. you know, the worst thing thatcan happen is when a person lives without loveand trust to someone else.

you just don't trust anyoneand that's something terrible. l'm alone. lt's the prostitution behavior which alwaysdegrades and damages the personality. and the imaginationof a stellar perspective after that person quitsis also quite naive l think. l think that the greatest prevention is to haveparents being interested in their children. just have an honest relationship with them.and also for the child to know that it can simply come to the parentsand entrust them with everything. all the problemsthe child has.

does all of this seema little far-fetched to you? on the lnternet thishappens on a daily basis. even at this moment youcan get involved in it. now you'll see barbora whodidn't believe it's that simple. barbora is an adult woman but whenshe used to work as an editor, she looked like a fourteen year old.so she pretended to be a girl and gave herself nickname natã¡lka,who wants to earn money by providing sex. she stressed that she hasn't been fifteen yetand she couldn't heve been more surprised. the response surprised usbecause it was very intense.

within half an hourthis fictitious natã¡lka had her e-mail box full of veryvulgar disgusting photos. those photos that we werereceiving in the e-mail box, l mean us - the fourteen year old girl, were usually naked. there were men's genitalsall over the photo and a face somewherein the background. despite her stressing thatshe hasn't been fifteen yet, she got quite brutally and vulgarlycontacted by one man.

he claimed thathe was 27 years old and he wanted to set up a meetingfor the purpose of having sex. he offered natã¡lka2.000 czk for... ... doing him a blowjob. she kept communicating with himfor a while to make sure that he was really interestedand that it wasn't just some prank or pretended interest. then shecontacted the police immediately. lt was kind of fair playin a way that she basically wasn'toffering anything,

you know something like,l'm thirteen and want to get to know sexor something, no. he simply attacked herright there over the lnternet. we evaluated the informationand then set up a meeting. fourteen year old natã¡lka was waitingin front of the shopping center and then he arrived. he was nicely dressedand arrived in a shiny expensive car. he certainly wasn'ta kind of person, who l imagine needs to searchfor contacts of this kind.

he didn't want to talkthere to me at all and immediatelydragged me to the car. come on, come on,natã¡lka, let's go. let's get ouf here.let's go. and he didn't want to talk to me at all.he took off and went away. that man was surprised. he didn'tknow he could have been arrested. lmmediately he began to arguethat he wanted to upbring her better, that she shouldn't be meetingunknown men and so on. l'm absolutely convincedthat if we weren't there

he would have justtaken the girl along and drove her somewhere out of pragueand god knows what would happen. because of course,l have experinces that these kind of meetingoften turn out tragically. there are only a fewtruly real pedophiles. however amongthese offenders there are many morenormal heterosexual men who just kind of want tovariegate their sexual life by abusing minors,youth and even children.

they are usually people who havetheir normal heterosexual history, relationship, partnership,often live are married, and yet because of somesort of debauchery they want to improvetheir sexual life. lf there is any defenseagainst these phenomena then perhaps only this one - neveranswer any contact or invitation for meeting. we should start thinking why this strangerwants to contact me. why does he wantto meet me so much?

and so, if l decide for myselfto go to that meeting then l should followsome basic rules like: never go there alone, have the meeting in a publicarea and so on. the man who actually set upthe sex meeting with bã¡ra will stay a manof mystery. we can't showyou his face. the fact that hewanted to have sex with a fourteen yearl oldis impossible for us to prove.

at the court he argued he didn'tbelieve that natã¡lka really was fourteen and even if she was then hewould have just warned her. yes, you can hear correctly, he wouldgive her 2.000 czk and send her home. lf the offender doesn'tcommit any concrete action which could be classifiedas a criminal offense, in this casesexual abuse, than he can't be hold criminaly responsible.the preparation is not a crime though. the only chance is,when the children notice us or give an echo and helpfind and identify such a person.

because he will be trying the samething on others until he succeeds. until eighteen yearsof age this young person is protected by a varietyof special safeguard mechanisms. he or she can testifyas a secret witness, under fake name, doesn't have to attendto the court, the testimony can bejust read and so on. so all we need is onlyto assure the children that the law remembersthem very well

and they can be greatlyand effectively protected. you can alwaysmake a mistake but it's never too late to make it up. even if you think thousand times that it's impossible, believe me it is always possible. even when you send one or maybemore erotic photos to someone, you can always findsomeone who can help you.

there is no such situationwhich wouldn't have a solution but you can'tmake it on your own. and if you don't dare to confide to yourparent, friends or teachers at school then you should visit the webpage''seznamsebezpecne.cz''. and we'll directyou further. seznam operates services which basically cover mostof the lnternet's population, that means 6 to 7 million people.and it's very clear that among these there are also some,who abuse the lnternet

which means thatthey try to attack, rob or misuse the dataof it's users. seznam.cz is not afraidof blocking these users even though it's onlya needle in a haystack but we want the lnternetto be the first choice and be safer not only for adultsbut for children as well. the lnternet is anothergreat invention of humanity. the only thing about itis that it's like a fire it's a great servantbut a horrible master.

and so, never let itgrow over top of your head.

parenting in the digital age

but don't beafraid of it as well. wheter through the lnternetyou look for friends, love or job, alwaysbe one step ahead of it and act as the mastersof the situation.�
