Textual Healing

In a recent story lawmakers address sexting.  This is the new slang for sending nude or risqué photos by texting on cell phones. 

In addition to the embarrassment of these photos being leaked out, other consequences now include:

 

·      Minors can be charged with child pornography

·      People who send photos of minors can be charged

·      People can for life be registered as sex offenders for sexting with a minor

 

Lawmakers feel that it is too harsh a punishment for minors and changes must be made.
