    Parents need to be diligent in protecting and guiding their children. This electronic age and the pitfalls is a reality, No matter what punishment he receives your child will be irreversibly scarred and your failure to protect cannot be ignored.
    Matter of fact, this individual warped mind and actions, may very well be the product of
    parents/caretakers who failed to protect him in his formative years.
