Terrorizing kids by saying that the police will make them official *** offenders for life; and threatening to charge them with child pornography (because the kids'' nudes are of themselves: children) is pretty scary. Do kids need to be more self-conscious?

no predators, no adults, no internet: just kids expressing kids'' sexuality. are we trying to criminalize sexuality?

I thought Schools were for the purpose of schooling the Nations youth in ''readin, ''ritin and ''rithmitic now they appear to be a training ground for sleaze. Ban cell phones in all schools.

In every generation, no matter what the consequences, kids got it and they''re gonna flaunt it. This is also part of today''s kids viewing dating as archaic and sexuality being no big deal - I seriously wonder if that attitude isn''t just a bit healthier than fearing gossip and the wrath of god about being a virgin or having a reputation.

What''s the big deal? I heard people saying that phones with cameras should not be sold to kids under 18. As if that''s going to change their behavior.

How about teaching kids the proper values and being an example of morality? If they don''t use the phones, then they will use digital cameras and the internet, which is worse. Back in the day it was the polaroid.

Teen pregnancies are down for the first time in decades. Maybe this activity is a good thing.

[Why must all you make this political. If you want to blame Dems or Reps, you have to choose Dems. They are the ones who have elimated capital punishment. If you can correct you children, and they no it, what are the consequents? NONE. Welcome to the new USSA!]

capital punishment? since when does this work as a deterent for kids doing kids stuff?

i assume you are aware that actual capital punishment has been banned in nearly every country. maybe if we went back to the days of ''trial by ordeal'' or even ''quartering'' we''d have less deviant behaviour.

I''m saying if the parents would make these kids who are doing this pay their own cell phone bill,I bet a lot of that will quit.When they have to get a job and pay for their Text messaging,their sending pictures, then they would get the big picture.

wrong again. They end up getting a job and still taking pictures for some. (I'm just ready for a change)
