The events of 2020 pushed most of our lives more fully online than ever before: working from home, virtual schooling, Zoom get-togethers. This past year also saw a dramatic increase in reports of online child abuse, including online enticement. Enticement involves an individual communicating online with someone believed to be a child, with the intent to commit a sex offense or to abduct the child. Online enticement can happen to any child using the internet. Parents should be very aware of what their children do online, including who they talk to and what sites they spend time on.

Tenga cuidado con los peligros de la tentación en línea
Los eventos de 2020 forzaron la mayor parte de nuestras vidas a estar más conectadas en línea que nunca antes: trabajar desde casa, educación virtual, reuniones de Zoom. El año pasado también vio un aumento dramático en los reportes de abuso infantil en línea, incluida la seducción en línea. La seducción implica que una persona se comunique en línea con alguien que se cree que es un niño, con la intención de cometer un delito sexual o secuestrar al niño. La tentación en línea puede sucederle a cualquier niño que use Internet. Los padres deben estar muy atentos a lo que hacen sus hijos en línea, incluyendo con quién hablan y en qué sitios de Internet pasan el tiempo.
