#35: It’s a Scary World Out There
This story could have had a completely different ending if it wasn’t for this dedicated police officer. There are many predators out there trying to take advantage of young children and teens, and in our era of smartphones and social media, it has become easier than ever. We need to be on the lookout when talking to strangers online.

Someone shared the story of a 13-year-old girl who was lured to a motel by an online predator. We don’t have all the details here, and we don’t know what he said to get her to agree to meet him. Either way, there’s a very important moral to this story: don’t talk to strangers online and don’t agree to meet them, no matter how nice and trusting they seem.
