And Jonathan, for your research and expertise to keep our kids safe, because I'm almost through with the book and I'm mind blown about everything that you've said. It's just so tough. And I'm honestly kicking myself as a mom for not checking my daughter's phone sooner, you know, but there were no red flags. I mean, she's a great student. She's involved in school and an athlete.

And I was just mind-blown to see, you know, when I took her phone away and went through some of the stuff, I couldn't believe that, you know, people could be so vulgar. And when I say people, I mean... Kids her age, you know, we're talking 13 year olds, 14 year olds, you know, the profanity. I was blown away at just just the level of like, you know, hurt these kids give to one another.

So when I, yeah, so when I took her phone, I, you know, when I started taking a deep dive, I did find fake profiles on Facebook and Instagram. And, you know, from my perspective, it appeared to be that she was just trying to have fun or be funny. But what scared me most about those fake accounts is that I saw several messages from boys, older boys messaging her. And these are complete strangers.
