Dsd and snapchat

[NameChangedForThisOneSorry]

Dsd 14 showed dh and I last night her snapchat where she has been sent many many explicit messages, photos and videos. She has been engaging with this person who has sent her various videos of his penis masturbating. He's a grown man.

Dh and I are obviously very concerned dh reported to snapchat, sent this man a private message then blocked him so he can no longer contact Dsd. However Dsd has been sending him messages and it would seem a video of herself. Dh has spoken to her and relayed the seriousness of this but it's not registered. What would you do about this? Is there anything that can be done?

Talk to the police.

Police. Do not pass go. Do not collect £200.

Then contact the person in charge of safeguarding at her school. Tomorrow.

How did you see the content of the pictures and videos? I thought Snapchat auto-deletes stuff once it has been seen?

I agree with contacting the safeguarding lead at school as soon as possible.

She saved them, police can't do anything. Bloody 'social' media.

Did you try www.ceop.police.uk/safety-centre/

Have you asked her how she would feel if videos and photos of her were put on the internet for EVER? For every future employer, boyfriend, classmate to see?

Or what she would do if this man tracked her down. I know that’s not how Snapchat works but it could happen if she gives too much info out on other SM.

I’d talk to police (to report him), school, her mum and remove phone and any other internet until she gets it.

Thank you mais very helpful website

Think of a male teacher at school that she really dislikes and ask how she'd feel if he was looking at her photos/videos.

She can get in trouble for distributing child porn and end up on the sex offenders register - even though the vid is of her. She needs to understand this

How do you know the police can't do anything? Have you spoken to them about it? It might also be worth posting about this in Legal Matters if you're looking for practical information on what to do. I agree about contacting the Safeguarding person at school tomorrow.
