The Metro: Expert tips for keeping kids safe online
On this episode of The Metro, we tackled a really serious topic: online child exploitation.
It’s a criminal act that targets the most vulnerable people in our communities, kids and teens. Online child exploitation comes in many different forms, including online grooming, enticement and solicitation.
Kathryn Seigfried-Spellar is a professor in the School of Criminal Justice at Michigan State University and an expert in the psychosocial and technological factors associated with cybercriminal behavior. She focuses on the criminological characteristics and grooming strategies of online child sex offenders.
Seigfried-Speller offers advice on keeping minors safe in our modern digital landscape.
