Are there any risks with using virtual visitation?
Virtual visitation doesn’t guarantee safety. The abuser could still abuse/harass you or your child during the visit. An abuser may want to gain access to your computer to track you, steal your information, or to try to share malicious links with you. Such links could download stalkerware or malware onto your computer.
The abuser could try to use tech to monitor you in other ways. Read more about monitoring in our GPS Monitoring page and Computer Crimes page. An advocate can help you safety plan around using tech to co-parent.
