Why do teens send sex text messages on their cell phones? HLN's Dr. Drew Pinsky looks into why kids are sexting.
Talk to your children about this video clip. How do they define the word 'reputation'? What kind of reputation do they want to have? Do they think their online reputation could affect their chances of getting in to a good college or getting a good job in the future? Have they sent sexual text messages on their phone? Have they sent sexy photos of themselves? Discuss the rules you want them to follow when using their phone and the internet.
You may find it helpful to read the chapter "Restoring Sexual Integrity" in our book "How To Survive Your Teen's Pregnancy".
