A 13 yr old girl at my oldest daughters school last week, abruptly changed schools. At 1st I thought the family is moving. The next day my daughter said she saw a bunch of boys huddled around each other looking at something. She later asked one of the boys and he said they were looking at totally nude pictures of that girl. At 1st I thought this is just a bad rumor.

A weeks gone by and now she's hearing the police are involved and several boys have been brought down by their parents for questioning. Apparently the girl took completely nude pics and sent them to one boy and he sent them to other boys. I haven't spoke to an adult for 100% confirmation but this looks like it's not a rumor.

The schools start reminding kids about internet safety and it's common sense not to give out naked pictures. This girl comes from a middle/upper class family. It's obvious some kids aren't getting enough guidance and given too much freedom with the internet. I've seen this girl since she was in junior kindergarten class - such a sad thing. Since the kids are 13 I don't think they can be charged as a juvenile.
