Sexting is a sensitive subject to some, but to others, it needs to be addressed. To me, it is your responsibility to what ever you send, and you have the right over your body. You should not let anyone or anything influence your decision. Now, with that being said, I also believe that if the parent's find out, and do not intervene, it is also on them. A parents relationship with their child should never be shy, the child should no be afraid or worried to talk to their parent.
Another thing, if a person sends a explicit picture of themselves, then they should realize that there is a possibility that it will get sent around. They should be aware of the ridicule they will face if that happens. However, they should not be forced to endure it. I believe that the child should talk to someone about the bullying, either to a school councilor, or to a parent. Also, the teachers and school staff should make and input as well. I know the teachers have their own job to do, but aren't schools supposed to be safe and enjoyable? The teachers cannot be too blind to not see what is happening in front of them.
I will continue to work on this later today and tomorrow.

Sexting is stupid and it shouldn't be happening. Student's should be paying attention in classes. I remember when I was taking a graphic design course and just looked at how many students were texting. It's so dumb and it pisses me off.
ReplyDeleteI think schools should do something about having cell phones in school. Cell phone are needed but not in school they are. If some one like a parent needs to get a hold if you, they should be calling the office and then thats how they should contact you.
But I don't know, thats just me.
I agree 100%. However you aren't going to be able to take the cellphone's away, because there will always be some kid that still texts in class.
