[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, I have to weigh in. I’m a school counselor and deal with this crap all the time. Some points:
1.) It’s not necessarily a parental failing. We can do a “scared straight” presentation at school, complete with stories of criminal charges for sexting, and some idiot 8th grader will send a dick pic the next day.
2.) If you don’t want to tell his parents (I personally think you should) at least make a call to his school and ask for anonymity. Someone should address the issue with him as part of a group, at minimum. They don’t need to directly call him out to educate him.
3.) These are 8th grade boys. They have the maturity of 6th grade girls. They are still 12 years away from having a fully functional brain. They’re going to make mistakes and need to be taught now how to behave. That’s why someone should know. It’s better to learn this lesson now than senior year of high school or as an adult.
4.) Tell your daughter’s school; ask for anonymity. She needs to be taught how to handle these situations too, as do her peers. 
5.) A part of me views this is less aggressive than him demanding she send him a topless shot, which is a more typical scenario. Another part of me marvels at the fact that he thought this might build his case and get her to like him.
6.)[b] The fact that she still wants to be friends with him makes me think she actually does want to go out with him. I didn’t see that twist coming. [/b][/quote]

That is probably why she said "sure" send it. She is not the victim some are trying to portray her as. She is as culpable as he is.[/quote]
