Good points wolfsong and I'm sorry this happened to your son. I don't think the boys will be charged(fingers crossed) because I think the youth has to be 14. If the boys were charged then, so should the girl. I would much rather, all concerned be brought with their parents for questioning and for the parents to deal with implementing appropriate action at home - like keeping the computer in the main living area's and not letting them take their IPOd Touch to school.

It's very normal for young people to want to look at naked bodies but it's unfortunate if they're looking at porn rather than the milder Playboy kind of pic. These boys should think about, what if this was their sister or mother and someone was passing their pic around. I think dealing with all concerned on this level is better than charging them. Since these are kids, parents need to occasionally look at what on the kids computer and have open discussions about these matters.
