CBS News "Sexting" Leads to Child Porn Charges for Teens
In an article by CBS News; I read once again about "sexting" and the distribuion of nude photos among teens via cell phone. The article instantly made me think of how many adults are engaging in this same craze. Adults are obviously not experiencing the harsh penalities these school aged children in the article I read are but there are penalities nevertheless. We are witnessing celebrities like Kendra Wilkinson deal with the penality of humilation years after thinkng that nude photos and videos with an ex-lover would never resurface. How do we censor ourselves as adults? How many times has someone you're only dating asked to see a picture of your boobies or volunteered to send a pic of their bulge? When is it thought to be ok to send someone we're not in a committed relationship with a picture of our private parts? I'm sorry folks but teenagers didn't come up with or develop these silly antics on their own. We are part of the blame. I have to be honest in saying that I have sent someone I trusted and thought I would go on to be with for a lifetime indecent pictures. Pictures that he could have gone on to show not only his boys, but the whole world! One click on the word UPLOAD and you're up and posted to the worldwide web. Would you send someone you're not in a committed (you & them) relationship nude pics of yourself and if so why? Would they be sent in good fun and what happens if good fun turns into heart wrenching humiliation and defamation of character? Let's talk about it...
