Abbey, thanks for bringing attention to this very important message to protect our children when they are at risk through the technologies they use. Also, a new trend in society is on the rise “sextortion” affecting our teens. Read about a case in my book and listen to my recent interview on national syndicated radio at my website. Thanks again for bring awareness to protecting kids online.
