In the US, more than 100 million monthly active users use TikTok. And 60% of users are between the age of 16 and 24. Millions of teenagers are using the TikTok app.<\/p>\n<p>TikTok has become engaging because of its Challenges, dance videos, duets, and comedy clips. The TikTok content is highly appealing and addictive for the youth. TikTok has built a strong and engaged following.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, TikTok\u2019s popularity and youth audience makes it an attractive hunting ground for online predators. Parents should monitor the activities of their kid\u2019s on their TikTok account. It will prevent children\u2019s victimization. Watching privacy settings, followers, comments, and messages is critical to help keep kids safe on this platform.<\/p>\n<p>While TikTok can be an outlet for creativity and community for teens, parents must be aware of the potential dangers. With close supervision and guidance, youth can use TikTok responsibly but left unmonitored, posing severe risks. Parents should make it a priority to understand TikTok and take an active role in how they are using the app.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-actionbox us_custom_6f148498 color_primary controls_right\"><div class=\"w-actionbox-text\"><p class=\"w-actionbox-title\" style=\"font-size:1.3rem\">Protect Your Children From TikTok Predators<\/p><\/div><div class=\"w-actionbox-controls\"><a class=\"w-btn us-btn-style_1\" href=\"https:\/\/ogymogy.com\/pricing\" style=\"font-size:20px;\"><span class=\"w-btn-label\">Get Started<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div>[vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Understanding TikTok Predators: What Parents Need to Know?&#8221; google_fonts=&#8221;font_family:Signika%3A300%2Cregular%2C600%2C700|font_style:600%20bold%20regular%3A600%3Anormal&#8221; el_id=&#8221;Understanding TikTok Predators&#8221; css=&#8221;%7B%22default%22%3A%7B%22font-size%22%3A%2225px%22%7D%7D&#8221;]<div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p>Parents must understand <a href=\"https:\/\/ogymogy.com\/blog\/what-parents-need-to-know-about-tiktok\/\">what parents need to know about TikTok<\/a> and how child predators operate on TikTok to protect them from online issues.<\/p>\n<p>TikTok predators specifically target underage users to exploit and manipulate them. They create fake profiles pretending to be teenagers to seem more relatable. They then message underage users, compliment them, gain their trust, and convince them to share personal information, explicit images or meet in person.<\/p>\n<p>Some warning signs of a predator include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An older user messaging a kid and being overly friendly<\/li>\n<li>Asking an underage user for their phone number, address, date of birth or to meet in person<\/li>\n<li>Constantly complimenting a kid\u2019s appearance<\/li>\n<li>Asking them to share private photos or videos<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Parents should monitor their child\u2019s TikTok account and messages.
