Children and adolescents who fall victim to sexual abuse while live streaming often endure deep emotional and psychological trauma. The experience can be extremely distressing and humiliating, leaving lasting scars on their mental well-being.

This kind of abuse doesn't just impact the child—it can be devastating for the entire family. Parents may feel helpless, guilty, and overwhelmed, while the child may struggle with fear, shame, and confusion.

The reality is that any child can be targeted. Online predators are skilled at identifying and manipulating young, vulnerable users—often by posing as friends or using flattery and emotional blackmail.

Being aware and proactive is the first step in protecting children from becoming part of a painful and excruciating ordeal—one that no child or family should ever have to endure.
