Two 15-year old girls charged with "pimping" - Keeping children and teens safe on the Internet

Two 15-year old girls have been charged with "pimping" after forcing three teens into prostitution. The girls met online and moved the activity offline.

I have always said that a girls self-esteem is directly related to her online activities and behavior. We can monitor our children's online behavior all day, but the conversation must start offline with the basics on self-love and self worth.

I provide two tips related to Internet Safety around this story.

Thank you for warning and challenging parents to take an active role in keeping our children safe on the internet. Furthermore, it is good that you shared and was real about black girs self esteem and images of themselves that could affect their decision making which could lead to negative consequences. because of poor skills.

Thank you for viewing and commenting...I truly appreciate it! Trust me I speak from experience as it relates to self esteem and decision making. It took me a while to get to the point of self-love and I will share my story with anyone who will listen.

Self Love is powerful. Unfortunately parents don't realize the impact of what they MODEL! We can't ignore what's happening around us. Be in your child's business!!!!! We must protect them!
