Only few parents discuss problems of online safety such as pornography or sexting with their children. Most importantly, youths should be taught about what they can do when they encounter content online that upsets them, that they can approach an adult, various help organizations available, or report inappropriate content.

Topic Tags | politics, pornography, sexting, WhatsApp
Summary | Switzerland saw two nude selfie scandals in and around politics this summer. A secretary working in the parlamentarian offices had been tweeting nude selfies taken on the premises. Parlamentarian and city mayor of Baden in Switzerland, Geri Müller, had been sexting with an online friend via WhatsApp, including an abundance of written messages and nude selfies. The Swiss public had been debating whether Müller's #selfiegate should have been newsworthy at all. What ultimately emerges is a double standard: the secretary lost her job within days and the mayor is still representing the Swiss people in parliament.

Summary | Swiss towns traditionally invite all of their citizens who turn 18 to a young citizens’ celebration to initiate them into the life of their town, meet the town council, find out about their right, and to mingle with fellow young citizens during some fun activities. Less and less youths however responded to such invites and so the town of Sirnach decided to send their invites via text message and WhatsApp. This is meant to create a group dynamic so that young citizens would animate fellow young citizens to attend the celebration.
