Safe sexting for kids.

Pretty sure this is a bad idea...

Hundreds of Nude Photos Jolt Colorado School


CAÑON CITY, Colo. — At least 100 students at a high school in Cañon City traded naked pictures of themselves, the authorities said Friday, part of a large sexting ring.

The revelation has left parents outraged, administrators searching for missed clues, and the police and the district attorney’s office debating whether to file child pornography charges — including felony charges — against some of the participants.

...

Amy Adele Hasinoff, an assistant professor at the University of Colorado Denver and the author of a new book, “Sexting Panic,” contends that schools need to find new ways to talk to students about the issue. Rather than just demanding that students abstain from sending risqué images, she said, educators should aim for open conversations that involve guidance in “safer sexting” with trusted partners.

Don't give your minor a cell phone. Any other brain busters?

Hell while we are at it lets just convince them they are ugly and should never share their bodies.

In fact, let's tell them not to speak unless they are spoken to.

I keep mine in the basement where nothing bad can happen to them, and they can't do any bad onto others.

Child pornography charges...ppfffft please. If every person who had sex under the age of 18 was charged with statutory rape half the population would be registered sex offenders. If not more.

They should definitely all be charged with distributing child porn. Let's get them on the sex offender list and make sure they all have their fucking lives ruined. This kind of childish behavior should not be left unpunished.

Back in the day... We didn't have these wonderful devices. We had to do it "in the real world". We called it "playing doctor"...

Life was (is) grand.

My comment was in response to the parents being outraged at the school staff. It's f*ckin retarded. "Kids" are going to be sexual, if you don't want your child sexting don't give them a cell phone.

This is how it was done up until a few generations ago. The shift actually coincides well with the oft lamented general shitting up of the population.

No cell phone, no problem. They can video chat on a tablet and share real underage home porn... Even at their local Starbucks or library wifi...

At least there are a lot of prisons near Canon city so those kids can be put in prison for being kids.

Child porn charges would be ridiculous, but I also don't think this is just "kids being kids." If it is, well damn, I definitely missed out in high school.

Bit of a threadjack, but this story is even weirder. Apparently, a bunch of Brazilian men posted lewd comments about a 12-year old reality show contestant.

I think you might have missed out in high school.

Sadly, while child porn charges are ridiculous, there is quite a bit of precedent for it.

Err meh GERD! Kids acting like........kids. We are a nation of prudes.

It happens more than you might think. Two kids in South Carolina (I think) were both the victim and the offender in their cases for sexting.

With modern technology kids acting like kids today can feed the kitty porn pipeline.
Kids acting like kids can quickly get themselves in a ton of shit.

Saw that one. Extreme outlier.

When it comes to sex crimes, I think the basement is a preferred location.

It's always someone else's fault.

 

[JesasaurusRex]

It's easier that way.

Nothing worse than most my friends in HS and probably would have been done if phones had cameras then


Nude photos texted is s fact of life now. It actually IS, by definition, normal
