I'm sitting here watching the news and all of a sudden the people start talking about children sexting each other... apparently it has some people freaking out. Its a big enough issue that some states are trying to make laws about it. Sexting is defined by them as not only being words... but sending images of themselves. Thus they call it distribution of child pornography and possession of child pornography.

They've talked about jail time, classes (akin to driving school kinda classes...but w/ sexting >_&gt , fining the parents, whether or not to give the kid a criminal record.... does anyone have any further insight into the situation? does anyone have anything that they would like to say that either agrees or disagrees w/ the other people's suggestions? do you have any suggestions? ...or do you care?

Classes on sexual harassment, sexual violence and gender roles are quite ineffective. No actually, usually are plainly wasted resources.

In my opinion they should introduce a bill that would make it a misdemeanor for minors to send nude images to other minors over their cell phones.
Honestly charging 13 and 14-year old kids with possession of child pornography and distribution of child pornography (when they send the nude picture to kids their own age) is rather frivolous.
Plus, prosecutors still could pursue harsher penalties if appropriate, there are always available the charges of second-degree disseminating indecent material to a minor and endangering the welfare of a child.

I think now the public prosecutors are harming the children more than helping them. They are traumatizing the kids furthermore.

Again, I understand charging a 17-year-old who sends sexually explicit images to 12/13/14 year-old kids or a 14 year-old kid who knowingly and purposely sends sexually explicit images to adults, but a kid who sends images to other kids is just absurd and ridiculous.

Sexting is a felony where I am from. You are a registered sex offender and that basically ruins your entire life. If are charged with a felony you cannot go to many universities and everyone knows, you're kind of screwed if you don't go.

It is a PG-13 forum last I checked. Little kids should not be here.

So are you saying to adults can not make "sext" or whatever you call it? The formation of your sentence is as erotic as...

Where exactly are you from?

If it is two of-age adults, than I can see nothing wrong with "sexting" as you call it. It could, of course, be a negative thing if it is between little kids, the 13-14 year or younger especially. It would make since that if the two adults could have sex in real life that they could masturbate to a picture...

I've done it. I'm 13.

And where's the problem with it? I suppose I was pushing it, but between two people who are dating and truely care about each other it should be more than acceptable. The problem is it's who it's between and I suppose you're all thinking everybody's a either a creep, immature or a ****.

Maryland.

Sexting is popular with most early teenage kids. I doubt you'll find many adults sexting. Sexting is already legal, but send child pornography over texts is illegal.

It should be more than acceptable? What is wrong with you? Doesn't it freak you out that one day you're children will be doing it?

May I ask where you get these statistics?

Why would that freak you out?

Oh my god. I cannot believe you just called facts statistics. Are you so dumb that you don't even know what statistics are? Statistics are a collection of data, not a collection of facts.

That's like asking why would ripping out someone's heart from their chest with your bare hand freak you out. It just does.

sexting is illegal because that person could distribute it to other people, which then it could go anywhere. what if it finds its way on the internet when a creepo finds a lost phone of a sexter? it can go all through the internet and little children can find these pictures. Pedophilia is also a big deal with this. what about the person who did the sexting? how embarassing would it be to see your nude picture online for everyone too see and no way to get it off? THINK BEFORE YOU POST PEOPLE!!!! i thought people where smarter than this... but not online it seems ...

And I cannot believe that you have your head so far up your *** you can not see what I am saying. I am asking for a collection of data. I want a chart, a graph, or numbers on the amount of people sexting relative to their age.

Really? Do you not realize that one day, in all likelihood, your children will have sex? Unless you have asexual reproduction, which do to your lack of mental capacity I can believe, then your children will probably have sex at one point.

You claimed I gave you a statistic, which I did not. You asked me where I got those alleged statistics. I gave you a link to video describing what I said.

You did not ask for a data, you asked where I got statistics that weren't even statistics. If you wanted me to say where I got my facts, I would said where, and I did.

You want the amount of people sexting, go look it up yourself. I am not saying that many people sext, but I am telling you what the punishment is.

You are a typical American teenager, blinded by you're own arrogance and never admitting you were wrong. Trying to be the anti-hero of you're own little made up world, arguing against what authority believes is bad.

Get it through you're small little head that I am saying what happens, I am not saying that many teenagers sext.

I realize they will have sex, but I would not want them to advertise themselves over a device. Sex is essential to humans, sexting is not.

I want it put in the form of a statistic, which it would be if properly presented. I can't play videos very well at the moment, I am currently downloading something. Can someone competent tell me what the video said, how credible it is, and any additional information?

You did not ask for a data, you asked where I got statistics that weren't even statistics. If you wanted me to say where I got my facts, I would said where, and I did.


They should be statistics, which would be a far superior and more reliable than a simple statement. I assumed that you had statistics, like "One out of every ten students interviewed had sexted at least once in the last three years" would be more logical than a stated "They sext more!1!"

You want the amount of people sexting, go look it up yourself. I am not saying that many people sext, but I am telling you what the punishment is.


Perhaps I will, but as it is your assertion that more young people sext it is your job to provide backup for that statement.

And by the way, if you are going to pretend that I am using the words incorrectly you should also provide backup. Even if I was using the text you are implying I am using it in, they are synonyms according to my source:

Main Entry: statistics
Part of Speech: noun
Definition: enumeration
Synonyms: census, data, demography, figures, stats

And

Main Entry: fact
Part of Speech: noun
Definition: event; detail of action
Synonyms: accomplishment, act, action, actuality, adventure, affair, being, case, circumstance, conception, consideration, construction, creation, data, datum, deed, entity, episode, evidence, experience, factor, fait accompli, feature, happening, incident, information, item, manifestation, occurrence, organism, particular, performance, phenomenon, point, proceeding, specific, statistic, transaction, truism
Antonyms: lie

So are you going to pull your head out of your *** now?

You are a typical American teenager, blinded by you're own arrogance and never admitting you were wrong.


Fist off, I am not wrong. Second off, nice job stereotyping.

Trying to be the anti-hero of you're own little made up world, arguing against what authority believes is ba


What? Are you saying I am taking the side that you are against, making me some form of antagonist to you? What authority believes that adult sexting is bad?

I realize they will have sex, but I would not want them to advertise themselves over a device. Sex is essential to humans, sexting is not.


So how is watching a home made porno bad?

You want me to tell you what happens when you sext, in the form of a statistic. How about you go make a hamburger into pizza first?

Maybe you could just look it up and see what it says instead of being a lazy ***.

Why do I need to give you a statistic? All I am saying is that when you sext, you become a registered sex offender. Listen to yourself. You make no sense.

I am not saying anything other than what happens to you once you sext.

Oh and the thesaurus thing, a statistic is a fact, but a fact is not always a statistic. You see how fact is not listed under the synonyms for statistic?

Fist off, I am not wrong. Second off, nice job stereotyping.


I am not wrong and neither are you, but we are both punching blindly. You are attacking me on something completely different than what I am saying.

What? Are you saying I am taking the side that you are against, making me some form of antagonist to you? What authority believes that adult sexting is bad?


I am saying that being a devil's advocate just for the sake of standing up to authority is what you are doing. Also, if you saw the video, which you didn't, then you would know what I am talking about.

So how is watching a home made porno bad?


No, since they are not children.
