DD is going to a two day human sexuality workshop this weekend. In the parent meeting last night they were very clear that we need to reiterate at home that participating in, sharing, forwarding, taking pics/recording, editing images, replying to an email, etc. all falls under pornography from a legal perspective.

I think they need to come up with a new category that isn't sex offender but carries some official weight to scare kids and cause an impact/track this. However, when I look at the sex offender map I don't want to see the 16 year old busted for a sext along with the 61 year old who touched an 8 year old. I don't see how the current categories benefit anyone.

That is so true!  There is a difference between a young teen with another young teen vs a legal adult with a minor.  As I said in my previous posts, young teens tent to make terrible decisions, lack common sense and generally have a hard time thinking about the consequences of their actions.

Does anyone else wonder how uncomfortable it has to be for the people who have to review this evidence? Like, I don't think I could even watch it if it was my job.

I had never thought about that but yeah, that job would suck. It would be like watching child porn.

I teach in a large urban district, and every year we have a cop from the local internet task force (deals with cyberbullying, child luring, child pornography, etc) come in to talk to our middle schoolers about cyberbullying and Internet safety. He's 50ish, big gruff guy. Part of his job is to maintain social media accounts as teenage boys and girls, to try to find predators. So he has these fake accounts and friends kids on facebook and chats and has to behave as a 14 year old girl. I think that must be a weird and disturbing job too.

(he always freaks the kids out by telling them that before he came to the school he searched out and friended a couple of the kids in our school with his fake accounts, to hit home for them how dangerous it can be to friend people you don't know in real life, and how you don't really know who someone is behind a screen)

So if a child gets labelled a sex offender, does it stay on their record after they become an adult, or is it sealed like other juvinele records? I assume it stays visible. I so don't agree with making a bad decision to have consensual sex too young marring someone for life.
