Summary | Youths have been taking nude images of themselves since the advent of the polaroid camera so it is only fitting that sexting is becoming more and more common among teenagers today. What many don't fully realize is how these risqué selfies can ruin their life. Once they are sent, the sender loses all control over them. The recipient can willfully or by accident publish these images and there is nothing the victim can do about it. Experts advise youths to think about their 'online brand' which will likely live for decades and how they want it to represent them.
