I don't think this is inappropriate. Even if she is barely an adult, sending pornography to minors is a felony and I would feel no sympathy for her if she was sentenced to life in jail and marked a sex predator for life, even if she is only 18. Her fault for sending pictures. Anyone with half a brain would realize that sending nude pictures is supplying someone with the best possible weapon to use against you.

And teenage boys.

One thing you don't want to do is involve yourself in the teen drama. Teens break up every...single...day. There is nothing wrong with teen dating IMO, but they have to be prepared for the inevitable end of the relationship. Remind him that teen relationships are merely preparation for the lifelong ones.

Oh, and hug him, he's hurting.
The above is good advice.

I viewed every picture they sent/received on my sons phone, and yes, she sent him three nude pictures of herself (she really shouldn't have, she is borderline overweight). From what I can tell from the text sent, he was coerced into it by her.
This is just sad on your part. why are you even commenting on the girls body. And how does one become coerced into receiving sexts? Something is not adding up here.

Yeah. Can't say I'd be making a comment on the girl's weight if I had a concern that there was an 18 year old sending nude photos of herself to my 15 year old son. (Who is the only 15 year old in America who "immediately" deletes nude photos of a female. What a kid!) And that same son was about to march into police HQ thinking he could get her...... "imprisoned".

I can't believe you would think that the police department would take lightly to having an adult sending a minor porn. You can bet your rear she would be interrogated later that night by the cops, if nothing else.

You need to back yourself out of this drama right away.

Tell your son that it would be stupid on his part to do anything but forget about her.

If you are making comments to you son in the vein of what you have posted here, you aren't doing him any favors.
So what if she's a little overweight? It didn't bother your son, obviously. You are fanning the flames, and you and yours will get burned.

Where were you when your 15 yr old was dating an 18 yr old anyway?

Once the police heard the background and history (boyfriend/girlfriend gone bad) I doubt she'd be "interrogated". At most she'd be warned about the potential consequences if she does this again.

The parents should let this go and keep the focus on helping their son in an emotionally healthy manner.

I didn't say that.

I'm expressing my amazement that the parental unit took the time to tell us Honey Pie is overweight while all of this apparent drama with the girl being forced into sex by her ex is going on.

That little tidbit got added as an edit. I'd start a new post for that **and get the heck off CD and go ask my son what the heck is going on** but that's just me.

She lied to us about her age, and it is impossible to tell as she is very petite. Were it not for her upper body, we would think she was 12 at the most.
I am not fanning the flame, I just don't want my son to become a doormat to be used by girls when their real boyfriend steps out on them. It's happened two times already for him, hence his anger.

So how were you helping him when they were officially dating and she was "stepping out on him"?

Have you explained to him the importance of boundaries? And that when someone crosses them we must act swiftly to prevent them from continuing to hurt us?
