warning for parents of teenagers.?
I just wanted to let you know of an experience we had in our famiy this week. On wensday evening I recieved a call from a mother of a my a kid in my sons school. Her little girl had recieved an inappropriate message from my sons cell phone and she wanted to let me know about it. I took my sons phone from him after speaking with him and I was shocked about what I found. He is only 14 and on his cell phone their were girls he goes to school with saying things about the sex they wanted to have, pictures of themselves naked, vidoe clips
and one girl had recorded herself carving her arm up with a knife, this is all very disgusting. Currently my son is without his phone and grounded to his room. I just wanted to let you all know what happened so that if you are not aware of what is on your childs cell phone you may be shocked as I was.
to purple there is nothing wrong with being good and having morals at a young age and no one should put you down for having respect for yourself, and yes it is crazy.
Mrs. Nikki as for the suggestion about the name you may have a point with
that, and as for me spending time with my child, when I am not working or
taking night classes I am with him, he has a 9pm curfew and I know where he
is at all times and I thought that was enought, turns out I was wrong. the
new technology something that I did not think about keeping tabs on.
and to all who said he is just a normal teenage boy, I understand that at
his age it is normal to be courious but what I found was not normal it was
worse than pornographic.

Thanks for the heads up. I heard about some situations similar to this on the radio and those children are being punsihed by law because of the nude pictures (child pornography because pictures are of kids under 18). Crazy to think it could go that far, but it's all very serious.

Yeah, I play a video game (runescape) with a lot of teens on it and they are all the same way. Talking a lot about sex, trying to act cool and yet very vulnerable. Many parents who have children who play these kind of games start to play themselves as it is a fascinating look into the world our teens live in when they are not at home. It may be a game but the emotions and talk are real.
Many girls talk about cutting but most are just "talking trash" - some, of course, do it tho. Kids talk about suicide when they break up with an online boyfriend or girlfriend. I find myself counseling a heartbroken teen often.
I am sure their private phone has lots of interesting things in it for a parent to look at. Just as my game has.

Well of course parents should be involved in their child's life. I plan to keep tabs on my children when they are teenagers (internet, phones, etc.) because the way I see it is, if they have nothing to hide, then there should be no problem with it.
By the way, you might want to rethink your name on here. Cuervo Gold Nights....not a good image to give to a "parent" of a teenager. You might want to spend less time with Jose, and more with your child.

Wellll, boys will be boys. I don't know if you've had 'The Talk' but you should go with the letter method- and say it all and get it over with. (this includes drinking and pot... and LSD and weed, etc...) Then DON'T ever bring the letter back up. simply put it on his pillow and let it sit. Trust me, he won't bring it up to you. except maybe laugh. But he'll take it to heart. Try sharing some of your experiences
Source(s): 14 and STILL learning that my parents tend to be always right. That method worked for me. I've only smoked once and I'm NOT doing it again. - How do you think about the answers? You can sign in to vote the answer.

OK...not every kid is like that. that is why kids have so much stuff to hide! Becuz we know that you parents will freak out and ground us and all this other stuff. I'm not saying that what they were doing was right. I'm meant he sutting and stuff is bad...and wrong. But don't judge people and then...post a question on line and have everyone else judging kids and being super over protective!

oh! that might have something to with why my parents don't get me a cell phone(cuz they're worried what people might send me!). thats nasty! i would never do something like that! they're still kids! the nude pics are nasty! the carving thing is just creepy to do on film. they might have issues, but why film it?!

Okay. I'm seventeen and don't do those things just for the record.
That is pretty crazy though.
Um, why the thumbs downs? Seriously, is there something wrong with being good?

Its not like thats normal,
you just have a horny son.
I would advise you to check internet history then too though.
just learn if he watches porn too.
