Sexting is about respect and trust: ‘It can go wrong, but you should never be ashamed’

Sexting, sending photos or videos of yourself with sexual content online, is very common among young people these days. But it can also go completely wrong if this entertainment leads to extortion or disclosure of the images. Time for parents or carers to sit down with adolescents at the kitchen table and discuss how they can safely engage in sexting. Because they do anyway.
