To feel sick?

I know im not be unreasonable but I just had to get this off my chest.

Scrolling through TikTok and 2 little girls about 8 years old pop up, the account only has a few videos all uploaded across today.

A man has commented ‘mm, TikTok is testing me today’
As adults, we know what he means. It’s disgusting. He has a faceless profile with no identifying things other than possibly works on a railway crew in London. But couldn’t narrow it down to the individual.

Ive reported the account but who knows how long it’ll be until the report is reviewed. Meanwhile there’s already at least one man watching the videos these kids have uploaded and commenting on it. Their parents have probably watched them all day making little videos thinking it’s harmless fun.

I genuinely feel sick and it must happen all the time.

@ProfessorXtra You are not wrong. Some of the worst culprits are Kohul looking after Totu and Wren Eleanors mum. And if we’re talking about ones that aren’t being boosted by paedophiles but still exploited, Everleigh Bryant, 8 Passengers, Saccone Jolys. I mean he’s making his child believe they are transgender and taking him to gender clinics and he’s like 7/8.

I did report both accounts. The kids account was gone and got no update about the commenter.

Did you report the accounts commenting or the girls account?

ProfessorXtra · 29/05/2023 07:11

There’s a lot of things at play here. Yes. The men commenting are vile and disgusting. There are always going to be this type of person.

Tiktok doesn’t do enough neither do the other social media sites.

Any parent who lets their kids post of these sites and claim ‘oh I didn’t realise/know’ are being wilfully ignorant. People who do know their kids are on these, again are being wilfully ignorant.

However, there’s a significant minority of parents who are encouraging their children to do this, filing their children and putting videos up and know exactly what they are doing. They want a popular account and to make money out of it so they pimp their kids out. Lots of have hundreds of comments from peadophiles, underneath and the parents leave them there.

A lot of these kids are victims of their own parents. Even seemingly innocent accounts that are focused entirely on the child’s day to day activities are known to be doing this.

Yes, dirty disgusting peadophiles on social media are awful. But I think the immediate danger ro a lot of these kids is the people looking after them.

That post about the children being made to eat large phallic foods is truly horrendous. I always knew tik tok was moronic but hadn't fully considered the potential for exploitation.
Why is everything so depressing?

Sorry I didn't see your response saying social services are aware. Bloody hell ☹️

My neighbour has a video up of her 2 year old daughter today playing naked in a paddling pool, she doesn’t give a shit tho as she has 50k followers and gets lots of gifts sent to her 🙄

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE report this to social services - they may just warn her but hopefully the shock of SS getting in touch should be enough

I genuinely am so shocked that this is a thing. I had no idea people were so blatant.

What in the actual name of fuck is happening here? How is this not breaking some kind of child safety law?

Like if you let your toddler run along the motorway shoulder?

Show quote history

I totally agree with you. This is a woman who is 20 weeks pregnant to a man she has been with for 20 weeks, the child now calls him daddy. Social services are well aware of the situation but because nothing has happened yet they aren’t interested.

The Internet and beyond is full of weirdos. Children shouldn't have to live in a world like this.

And the woman who works in the orphanage still makes these videos so that people send gifts

It sounds like the woman who works in some "orphanage" basically pimps out a child? Wtf? Sad

How do they get away with that do the local police not do anything or is it that nobody is sure of the exact location of this child?

The world is fucking depressing.

There is speculation that the men who make videos visiting the orphanage are in fact assaulting her. That little girl and other kids from the orphanage often are videoed with bruising on their lips - which is a sign of sexual assault.

@PleaseMakeItGoAway a common thing that these parents do with pages for their children too is making videos of them eating oversized food that is a certain erm shape. You get my drift. You’ll see those videos get millions of views and thousands of saves. They aren’t stupid, they know it’s paedophiles saving them but they are getting pay checks for the views so they keep doing it. Those videos then are screenshot and photoshopped with actual men’s genitalia instead of the food on the dark web. This is happening every day.

I share these things I’ve learned so I hopefully can alert some of you to how critical it is to be careful with what goes online from your children

Jesus, had no idea Tiktok was so bad I don't have it myself.

That's sickening, those poor children.

I wish I hadn’t googled Totu 😢

I hope that little girl is saved one day. The look in her eyes and how she blatantly dissociates when they’re making her do things kills me every time. You should be able to see trauma on a child’s face like that

That is horrific.

I must be naive, because I'm shocked he was so open about basically being a paedophile. What the fuck.

Extremely common on TikTok because they have no interest in stopping them and they can hide behind a faceless profile. They find each other on there too by using codes such as ‘cheese pizza’ when they are referring to ‘CP’ which we obviously call child exploitation. It’s a huge problem on TikTok.

The little girl Totu on TikTok breaks my heart. The child looks absolutely traumatised all the time. They make her open her mouth for the camera and then give her food once she’s done it. Grown men have travelled to the orphanage she is at to visit her. Clearly trafficked. That poor baby breaks my heart. And the woman who works in the orphanage still makes these videos so that people send gifts. But it’s clearly paedophiles doing it.

🤢 This neatly made me cry, I have an 8yr old DD ☹️

Unfortunately TikTok will say 'No violations found' as they do to EVERY report. I've reported things I wish I'd never seen. Things which have scarred me, yet they've said there's no violation. TikTok's lack of moderation is VILE

Bargellobitch · 28/05/2023 20:43

Awful. I think this shows why people should not let their young children on social media and also tbh there are similar issues with posting pics of your own children. Especially in swim suits etc. It's horrible to think about but unfortunately the people thinking like that are out there.

I’m 26, so I spent my teenage years on all sorts of websites being exposed to things that my parents didn’t have a clue about yet. Looking back some of the stuff was horrific.

But that was over 10 years ago. Most parents have smart phones and all sorts of devices now. They should know better. Children really shouldn’t have access to devices unless supervised.

I recommend people have a look at riadaaraes on TikTok. She makes videos about the ways children are exploited on TikTok.

I don’t use TikTok but found NSPCC guide within a few minutes. The videos are harmless fun, TikTok is not, but it looks like it could be safer. If OP doesn’t know the parents and the man obviously doesn’t the privacy is wrong.

The men doing this are horrible. At the same time there is some responsibility on parents to check Apps, put in settings or decide the app is not suitable. Then make their own passwords complicated so that children can’t guess and change them.

Is TikTok safe for children?
