Summary | Cases of teenage sexting keep sprouting up across the country. One cannot blame the youths because they are inexperienced and hormonal. They do not realize that creation, posession, and distribution of nude images of themselves or their peers constituted a child pornography felony with serious ramifications. Many sexts go viral nowadays, which makes sexual recklessness today much more dangerous. Some victimized teenagers have commited suicide. Parents must monitor their children's activities on their smartphones to protect them from themselves. They have all right to do so since they are paying for their cell phone plans.
