Does Momo exist? What abuses are our children exposed to in cyberspace?
The fame of the game “Momo” has reached everyone’s ears these days. “Momo” is a systematic game that has a profile on WhatsApp that calls your children and may harass them so much by hacking their account that it forces your child to do anything and eventually this violence and harassment may lead to the child’s suicide. to be
If you search Telegram and Instagram right now, it will bring up all Persian and non-Persian accounts whose name is “Momo” and you may even be able to contact them. Many of these people have lost their identity and just set their profile picture as Momo’s.
Regardless of whether Momo is real or not, it doesn’t matter at all, we must know that such dangers threaten our children in this space, and we must see which children are attracted to these child abusers?
Which children are interested in these issues and continue to be more interested in them? Unfortunately, many children spend a lot of time alone. A child whose parents are engaged in quarrels between husband and wife. A child sitting in his room and his parents don’t know what he is doing in his room?
A child whose communication and conversation with the family has not been formed at all. A child who says that if I tell my father, my father will fight me a lot. Or parents who have scared the child so much that the child does not dare to talk to them. Or the parents are so cowardly that the child says that if I tell my mother about the problem that happened to me, she will have a stroke and go to the hospital.
Parents should know that it is not useful to just inform and inform the child if they themselves are timid in front of problems.
We have seen a lot of someone who is behind that annoying account and scares our child. He knows how to work and is so involved that he uses every weak point and tool. Now imagine that they are also fearful parents. He enters our child’s life little by little and may lead to something that you as a parent can never compensate for.
Parents should know that these fears are dangerous and the society has child abusers and the only tool we have is to have a conversation with our children. To understand their loneliness. Understand their depression.
Do not think that if there is a conflict at home, it does not affect our child. Surely, this conflict has an effect on our child’s psyche and he gets hurt. Finally, we have to give our child the confidence that if anything happens to you and wherever you are, come and tell me and don’t worry about anything. That is, if you were in the middle of it and experienced terrible events, don’t be afraid and come and inform me so that I can help you.
This “come tell me” should be real and not just in words, so that the child cannot trust the words of his parents.
