Why This Matters
Today’s children and teens are more connected than ever. Friends, online acquaintances, coaches, babysitters, and even classmates can have a profound impact on your child’s safety and well-being. While most connections are harmless—or even healthy—some individuals may introduce risk, whether through toxic behavior, exploitation, criminal influence, or hidden agendas.
At Seek & Shield, we believe proactive awareness is the strongest defense. Our Sphere of Influence Investigation is designed to help parents identify potential threats within their child’s circle before harm occurs.

What Is a Sphere of Influence Investigation?

-
Friends and peers
-
Romantic interests or online connections
-
Coaches, tutors, and mentors
-
Babysitters, caregivers, and household staff
-
Social media influencers or online communities your child engages with
