I really don't think it's a matter of bad or neglectful parenting at all. Children will always explore themselves and each other in a sexual manner - we live in a digital age and as a result the sexual exploration has also gone digital.
It's easy to chalk it up to bad parenting but I think it's much more so the result of parents who obsess of their children's sexuality so much so that they produce sexually repressed children that are afraid of their own bodies. Those children are much more likely to make bad decisions.
All in all, it's not the end of the world. Just as always, children need a decent education, stern but fair parenting, room to make mistakes, and environment that allows them to communicate what they feel. Webcams haven't made it all that much different.
