Sexting - what is the issue?

That's the thing - I don't think this is trolling. Not all subjects are raised for a cheap laugh.

Some posters do raise valid points for discussion.... Some don't.....

Personally I was not trolling. But I am not sure about NLUK. There is only so much one an do for one's children. As I said, if my children are forced then the police will be involved.

I have made lots of mistakes on the internet and learn from them. There is alot of f4j stuff is I would rather had never been put online. I have been a victim of online fraud. I registered on cuk using my real name - alas when my username was updated it was not changed in replies so there are about 12 occurences of my real name on this site.

So are you saying all my threads are rubbish automatically? Can't they be judged on the merits individually?

I think the issue here is that the Telegraph have the wrong slant on the subject. People expect the nanny state to do everything for them. People have to learn that they take responsibilty for their own actions.

Which begs the question, "Who the **** are you then?".

Does it really matter? We all know who you really are, Cuthbert.

But what are you going to do about, other than be horrified?

The point of my post was not to be horrified or even to offer solutions.

It was merely to point out that in the main kids are not to be dismissed as stupid if this happens to them, as some have said on here. They are just kids, who do not have the powers of judgement that adults have.

What is the issue? The 14 year old in the story was having sex, the fact he was daft enough to post a video of it on the internet is not the main thing. Im pretty certain that teens have been showing each other their bits since the world was created and much more beside.

I dont have kids, however if I did the important advice Id give them, would not have anything to do with sexting. It would be that if they are going to have a sexual relationship to play safe and always use protection.
