Alamance County deputies arrested a 19-year-old accused of abducting a child.

Deputies said Noah Forshee, 19, met the 13-year-old online. The girl was reported missing on Oct. 14 around 2 a.m. The Special Victims Unit identified a man who picked up the child and then dropped her off at a Mebane shopping center. There were no signs of sexual abuse, but it's still a terrifying reality for many parents across the country. We spoke to a parent and a psychologist about the best way to keep kids safe from online predators.

The first point made is so often underrated! When I'm speaking to parents I always emphasize the importance of connecting with your kids "connections over controls". Because while apps that filter or monitor can be useful, ultimately your relationship with them and their understanding of what is safe and what is not will protect them when you aren't watching and as they grow older.
