- “What we see over and over again is the hyper-sexualization of both boys and girls,” Lina Nealon of the National Center on Sexual Exploitation told CBN News.
- According to the Internet Watch Foundation, 2021 broke all records for online child sexual abuse with 252,000 URL’s found containing images or videos of children being sexually abused compared with 153,000 the previous year.
