How can parents talk to teens about sexting?


Be very specific, especially with teens, that sexting often involves pictures or videos of a sexual nature.— Dreamstime/TNS

Q: My daughter is on her cellphone a lot. How do I talk to her about sexting and other privacy concerns?

A: Sexting is the sending or receiving of sexually explicit images, videos or text messages using a smartphone, computer, tablet, video game or digital camera. It's not something any parent wants to think about their child doing, and it may be uncomfortable to talk about. But the fact is that sexting is something kids will find out about at some point.
