One day I decided I was going to look for some chat rooms. I wished I could speak with my friends on them but they’re not allowed on. Their parents have blocked them because they say they’re dangerous. I’m not really sure what my parents think of them but I thought to myself ”well…. if I don’t ask them, then they can’t say no haha”. I’d not been in chat rooms before and I felt kind of nervous, like I was doing something I wasn't supposed to be doing, but it was the only thing I had left to do to stop my boredom.

I sat up in my bed clutching my phone as I navigated to Google and began typing... “online chat rooms for kids”. The list was endless and there were definitely some really strange ones that I shouldn’t have been looking at. I found one that was just ‘random chat for kids’ so I decided to sign up. As soon as I joined I started getting messages. pop , pop , pop, pop, some of them were reeeeeally creepy so I just stayed in the main room. After a while of chatting with a girl called Sam, I accepted her private message cos she seemed nice. But as soon as I accepted her, she asked if I could send her a picture of me. I wasn’t going to do that so I blocked her straight away.

We spoke for a few days there and he did send me some pictures of his animals, then one night I said bye and he replied with “bye babe!”..... Bye babe?!? Why did he just call me that. I turned off my phone and threw it down as fast as I could.
As I opened the message I saw the message from the night before and then a new one that read “morning babe hope to speak to you today” eugh, no way! I was FREAKING out! I took a screenshot of it and sent it to my friend who was a year older than me. She replied saying “haha go along with it and act like you’re not scared”

I decided I would do this, just for a bit and then I would tell my parents what he had said to me. So I replied with just “Morning”. As soon as my message had gone through he was back at me with another question, this went on all morning with creepy words in all of his questions, sweety, darling, babe! Why was he saying these things?!? He knew how old I was, I told him when we first spoke. Later in the day he started saying that he thought I didn’t trust him, and he was right! But I didn’t want him to know thi
