🕵️♂️ Suspecting your child is being exploited can be incredibly distressing. Here's what you can do: 👂 Listen without judgment. Create a safe space for your child to open up about their experiences. It's crucial they feel supported and not blamed. 🔍 Know the signs. Be aware of changes in behaviour, unexplained gifts, or new, older friends. These could indicate something's amiss. 🤝 Seek support. Contact organisations like the NSPCC or use the Child Exploitation and Online Protection command's resources. 🛑 Act promptly. If you believe your child is in immediate danger, contact the police. It's essential to intervene early to prevent further exploitation. 🔗 Visit our website for more guidance on safeguarding children and young people: paragonsocialcare.co.uk #ChildSafety #Safeguarding #SupportServices
