Sanger Middle School - A
controversy has arisen out of Denton County, Texas, involving a 13-year-old
boy, a cell phone and a text message. That message has landed the middle
schooler in juvenile detention on child pornography charges.
"I know some girl was
taking pictures of herself and sending it to multiple guys. Obviously, they've
still got their picture on their phone because they are now getting in
trouble," said Bethany Mitchell, a classmate.
Ease of cell phones and
the web to transmit images are stepping curious children into illegal activity.
The laws are going to have to be taught to both parents and children so they
know how this could damage their lives.

Absolutely. So they're imprinted safely, from the beginning. And I think this should extend to what they view online, on TV and at the movies. (I can't tell you how many R/X movies I saw regularly as a little one...which is not good for our little brains, emotions or sense of safety.)
