The study found, an increasing number of teenagers involved in sending and receiving sexually suggestive photos, videos or texts linked to their increased access to mobile phones. The study says that teenagers engage in sexting generally as a way of exploring their interest in others.
Already a common knowledge, teenage love affairs are usually the age of corn. Not impossible, what they have sent online can be circulated to people or sites that are not desired. In fact, it is not impossible, nude photos or videos that they send can be a tool used by certain parties to blackmail or threaten.
As a parent, you need to be more alert. A new study shows, today, one in four teenagers never send a sexual message or sexting through their smart phone.
