In this brief segment, Mike Domitrz explains how online sexual predators initiate contact by requesting nude photos and deliberately select children they believe will comply and, crucially, will not report the abuse. He emphasizes that the choice is not based on a child’s attractiveness or special qualities, but on the predator’s assessment that the child is unlikely to involve law enforcement. The speaker stresses the importance for parents to understand this targeting logic so they can better protect their children and encourage reporting.

Somebody is saying, send me a nude. Send me a photo of yourself. That is usually how this starts. Why are they picking the kid they are picking? This is super important for parents of all ages to know. Why are they picking the child they are picking? They are picking that kid for one reason. It is not because of how special they are. It is not because of how beautiful they are. They think they will. The only reason they pick that kid is because they believe that one will. They are never going to ask the kid who they think will report them to the police. No matter how good-looking that child is. What is happening here? They are looking for the victim. They are targeting intentionally.
