Sexting...what is it?
Sexting is when somebody uses their mobile to send an inappropriate text or image to other people
The Risks
• Bullying / harassment
• Lack of control of images- seen by family/ friends/police/offenders
• Your ‘digital footprint’
• Future career / job issues
• Where the images might end up…
• The legal implications
Possible consequences ?
Sexting is almost routine in the lives of many 14 year olds and it is something they address with their friends. They are highly unlikely to turn to an adult for fear of being judged.’
Professor Andy Phippen
‘EXPOSED’ by CEOPS explains the dangers
