The research on HS sexting shows that most of it occurs between 11 PM and 4 AM, so having a SAHP to greet a teen at 3 PM may not make a big difference.

Even the Amish have Rumspringa.

The less the know your kid, the less able you are to properly parent your kid. Hint: You take *your* cell phones to your bedroom when you go to sleep at night. Please do tell, what in the hell is so hard about that? Oh wait. And your kid will be pissed at you. So you will allow anything to avoid that discomfort. Right? Your children are parenting themselves.

We put our cell hones on a charging station down stairs when we go to bed. You bring your phone to your bedroom? That is unhealthy.

I guess my kid could sneak downstairs and get their phone, but I would put parental controls on before I would stalk my kids every move.

Good that you know your own kid. Every parent should.

Kids don't wear watches these days or use alarm clocks. They rely on their cell phones to tell the time and set their alarms.

It's hard to know what should be turned on and what should be turned off, particularly when kids are a year or two from being sent off to live on their own. It was much much easier when all parents had to say was no TV on school nights, or no TV after 10.

Men are foul. I don't blame the girls here. I blame the boy, and if the senior is 18, I hope this follows him around for the rest of his life.

I feel sorry for your sons and daughters, if you have any, with this attitude. A little girl getting humped by a dog may or may not be funny, but it's not "foul." Seriously, get a grip.

Are you dense? Did you flunk reading comprehension in school or something? How have you managed to get through life?

I didn't say the dog humping the girl was foul. I was saying the men's reactions to it -- talking about how it should be posted on social media, talking about a 7 yo girl in a sexual manner -- "wow, that dog's GETTING some! Go pooch!" -- was foul.

I have a grip, thank you. Those men just be glad they didn't discover how hard it would feel impacting their jaw.

Cause when I'm home after school, I'm always monitoring what my teens are doing on their computers and phones. Every keystroke, 100%. (Not really.)

Neither the child nor the animal was foul. It's the "men" getting off on it, moron. I feel so sorry for THEIR kids, poor things. And the girls who married these pathetic boys.

If only the girls hadn't posed pretty (and naked) for the camera and then posted the pics all over, the boys would not have had pics to use. Hmmm.

Fox terriers are the worst. They really can't take a hint.

On the bright side, you couldn't really them homophobic, either.

Can you provide a link. I don't know of any cases in this area that teen boys took pictures of girls involuntarily. There are multiple cases that have been linked in this thread about boys taking pictures given to them and sharing them.

The West Springfield case involved allegations of videos ((moving picutres) that were filmed without the knowledge of students in the videos.
