Some nudity is indeed for sex or porn as is the case in the OP. That is not "what teens do." You act as though "flirting" by sending nude pictures of yourself or posting them on the internet has always been part of growing up.

I dont see anything wrong with nudity. Now that im out in the country I roam around my place partially nude sometimes. Now if one is stupid enough to take pictures of themselves nude and pass them out, they need not cry about it when those photos become public.

Apparently that's what teens are doing nowadays, I don't see anything particularly wrong with it. Of course, they should take some precautions to make sure these pictures don't fall into the wrong hands.

The technology is different, but I'm pretty sure "I'll show you mine if you show me yours" isn't brand new.

I may be mistaken.

That's the point. A photo sent or posted on the internet easily falls into the wrong hands, like the boy you sent it to.

but call it child abuse, you must be kidding me. If a teen wants to put their naked pictures online, then I got no problem with it, as it was their own choice. Calling it abuse is crazy talk and the laws should be change.

I don't think it's child abuse. I think it's a bad decision by a teen.

There was a time when modesty was attractive. Not seeing the whole package was what made things that much more fun. Girls these days don't get that and think they have to put it all out on the table quickly or risk missing their chance at happiness. What they should realize is that if the guy they are seeing or trying to hook up with is only interested in their body, then he is probably not what they a really looking for. I feel bad for teens today because they are under immense pressure from friends,media,etc. to be a certain way when all they really need to do is be themselves. I can also tell you I am only 29 years old, but the teen scene has changed drastically since I was younger. Parents need to concentrate their efforts towards helping teens build positive self-esteem so they don't feel so obligated to seek acceptance from their peers. The problem is not just with the teens, it also lies with the parents. And yes, I am a parent myself. A boy and a girl.

I see nothing wrong with what they were doing. They CHOSE to do it, no one "forced" them into it.

If you haven't figured out yet that naked bodies raise sexual appetites, please do not reproduce.
