What is sexting??
It is the performance of sending inappropriate messages and picture messages through a text message from mobile to mobile. There have been huge advancements in technology and this includes cell phones. Years ago they didn’t even exist and now you can get on the Internet, text, call, or even chat with anyone whenever you want. This advancement in technology is very useful but not everyone gives it good use.
One of the not good uses of the cell phone is sexting. Sexting is the new thing now, forget about writing a cute anonyms note to the cute guy in your math class just send them a picture to make sure they know you are interested. Many teens are now putting themselves in danger as they send pictures of themselves to boyfriends. Guys now ask for you to proof your love and the best way they find to do this is by getting their girlfriends to send them semi-nude or nude picture of themselves. Girls do this thinking only their boyfriend is going to see it and as soon as he sees it he promised he would erase it but this does not always happen. Teen boys love showing of their trophies even if those trophies are inappropriate pictures of their girlfriends. Teen’s committing Sexting do not realize what the consequences might be for their actions. Inappropriate pictures can follow teens for a long time, and you never know where these pictures might end. What if their parents where to see these pictures? What if in the future their boss sees these pictures? Teens girls while sexting create a disturbing reputation for themselves. But this is not all, in the "Sexting, Teens Can Go Too Far" news report it talks about how four teenagers got arrested for exchanging inappropriate pictures of themselves.Their are many consequences for taking and exchanging nude pictures of themselves so teens should get educated about this because the advancements in technology should not get bad uses.
I had never even heard of this until my freshmen year of high school to girls from a neighboring school sent pictures of themselves to a boy at my school. The boys phone was then taken up just for him being on it in class and the pictures were found. Hours later the police were up at my school investigating the situation. This "sexting" trend is nothing to take lightly.
ReplyDeleteI think that this is a big problem when it "leaks out" but I also think that what goes on two people is their business and should STAY between those two people.
