It's in the news media, theres a reality show based on the subject, and as a parent the worried thought has probably crossed your mind more than once. Sex predators are out in the public and some statistics are just scary. It is said that one in six females will be sexually molested by age 18 and the same statistics stand for 1 in 5 males.

You have learned of the threats over the web and it is a fact that one of seven of America's underage population have been propositioned for sex over the Internet this year alone, however, a new startling statistic that has recently arisen will more than likely shock you even more.

The main group of sexual predator victims are surprisingly teenage boys. An even more disturbing fact is that many of these teenage boys actually knew of the predator's age beforehand and consented to the criminal sexual activity. This is believed to be attributed to a rising teenage male curiosity about sexual identity as well as many other factors such as poverty level, social issues, etc. With the majority of the victims being teenage boys, it is obvious that many parents are not aware of this growing trend or how to protect their children from these disgusting criminals.

With teenage boys being the the largest group of the victims of sexual predator activity, it is no surprise that cellular devices can play a big role in the activity that takes place between teenager and predator before an actual criminway to be 90 percent sure of your child's safety from these sex predators is to use technology to spy on the technology that already is in place, and yes, spying on your teen.

For mobile phones, there are now programs that can be installed on them that allow parents to login on the Internet and monitor all text messaging and phone numbers for their teenager's smartphone. Many of these companies provide free software and only charge for Internet subscription fees. This software is undetected by the cellular phone user but transfers all the info to the registered online account giving you a better chance to find out who your teen is talking to and more importantly, what they are messaging. Some of these spy services include Plimus and Brick House Security.

For computer online activities there are companies such as Spy Arsenal and Spy Patrol that allow you to collect important info such as your teen's login information, chat chats, and obviously websites they've visited.

While these spy companies are an excellent weapon to utilize in your quest to protect your teenager, being a part of your teen's daily activities and talking with them will still be the strongest weapon in the battle against child sex predators. Statistics show that teens with the least parental interaction had the highest rates of becoming victims. It is up to the parents to be involved and stay involved to prevent this sex crime.
