What tips do you have for grooming a child predator?

There are many potential warning signs of child grooming. Some things to look out for include excessive online / digital contact between the adult and the child, gifting money or unrequested items, encouraging secrecy around interactions or activities, overemphasis on physical or intimacy aspects of interactions and attempting to meet in person without notifying the child’s parents. Additionally, looking for unexplained computer activity in their home such as emails sent or received containing strange content is also advisable. Parents should also be aware that predatory behaviour can sometimes masquerade as more innocent activities such as creating a fake online identity representing a teenager (“Peter C.”) looking for friendship with “Cindy”, who never gives her age or address/location.
