Petition Action

Make posting a child without primary parents consent a criminal offence.

Petition Details

Posting a child without primary parents permission is not only disrespectful but potentially dangerous.
(Statistics below)

Additional Information

Over 2,800 children were reported needing protection from sexual abuse (2016-2017)

Over 3,000 NEW grooming offences last year. (2018)

In 2017-2018 1,189 child abductions took place in the UK.

As these numbers begin to rise what will it take to make people realise how dangerous social media is to children/babies?
