The Dangers Of Social Media - Child Predator Social Experiment | video


When you're a teenager on Facebook -- or any social media for that matter, you don't always think things through. The most common social media infraction that most teens make is connecting with people they don't know.
In this video, YouTuber, Coby Persin, creates a social experiment to show just how dangerous it can be to "friend" a stranger online. With the permission of three teenage girl's parents, he sends the girls a friend request posing as a 15 year old boy who just moved to their town. Not only do these girls accept his request and chat with him, but they also agree to meet up with a complete stranger. The girls parents were shocked to see that their daughters would give out their address and meet up with a stranger -- they didn't believe it was possible! This is something that everyone needs to see. You never know who that 15 year old boy might really be!
