Minecraft Sex—Here’s How to Protect Your Kids

Yesterday while on Facebook, I saw an article warning parents that Minecraft had a “sex mod” and I’ll be honest, I may have muttered a few choice words under my breath. SERIOUSLY, why can’t perverts just leave Minecraft alone? Oh, I know why! It’s because perverts are relentless and will do anything to lure child victims into their schemes for the fulfillment of their sick desires. (The author of the original article I read found out about the sex mod because her child was playing Minecraft on her phone and was propositioned by another player via Minecraft chat who wanted her to install it. KUDOS to this mom for having a comfortable communication relationship with her child and laying the groundwork for this possibility so that her child came to her RIGHT AWAY when it happened.) UGH. So, after reading around a bit, I knew I had to do a bit of research and write this article to help other parents protect their kids from finding the sex mods and/or being contacted via Minecraft by a potential predator who wanted them to play Minecraft with the sex mod. Read this article if you’re confused about what a Minecraft sex mod is.
