[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, obviously you have a lot of stuff going on with her. Sexting at 14 is unusual behavior. I suspect it's not the only troubling thing she does.

You need a global approach for dealing with her. This isn't about a phone, this is about a child exhibiting very troubling behavior that is quite dangerous. I would advise you not to get caught up in nonsense details like what kind of phone she has and look at the bigger picture.

She needs help. You have 4 years to get it under control and then you can't make her do Jack shit. Four years sounds like a long time, everyone on here will tell you is a blink.

Get her help.  Get her help.[/quote]

You're right she needs help. You're wrong that it's atypical behavior. Welcome to 2018 (or 2015 really). [/quote]

I know what year it is. I have teenagers and I work with teenagers. Sexting at 14 is not unheard of but it is not typical. It's a sign of a very trouble kid. [/quote]

+1 I work in a middle school. Although certainly quite a few do it, sexting is not typical behavior for the average 14 year old girl.[/quote]
It’s time for a psychiatrist, honestly. This sort of behavior is indicative of a handful of mental illnesses (which often become clear around puberty).[/quote]

I disagree.  Most likely the girl is misguided and extremely foolish.

There's no need to pay someone thousands to try and find out why she's texting. It doesn't even matter why she's doing it.  Teach her its wrong and how there can be terrible consequences.  Tell her you love her and ask her what is bothering her.
