Inappropriate Usage of Phone & Social Media • What to do next? • Student • If a student receives a photo or video of someone nude and under the age of 17 years old, the student needs to find a trusted adult (18 years or older). • The student needs to tell the adult they did not ask for the photo, they do not want it, and show that they are deleting the photo in the adults presence. • If an investigation occurs regarding who has seen, received, or sent the nude content, the trusted adult with be the students witness and testimony that the content was deleted and had not been asked for. • Parent/Teacher • No Judgment. • Have them delete the photo. • Explain why it is important for the content to be deleted and the importance of not engaging in sexting. • Notifying the school in case the content is distributed throughout the school or the victim begins to be bullied. • Talk about being safe on the internet.

  20. Why Do Young People Sext? • Young people sext for many different reasons: • Joining in because ‘everyone is doing it’ • Boosting self-esteem • Flirting with others and testing their sexual identity • Exploring their sexual feelings • To get attention and connect with new people on social media • They may find it difficult to say no if somebody asks them for an explicit image, especially if the person asking is persistent (peer pressure)

  21. How to talk to Students about Cyber Bullying and Internet Safety 71 % of teens are concerned about cyber bullying.  Bullying using texting or social media is becoming more common – don’t let your discomfort stop you from asking the questions. • All You Have To Do is Ask • Any Time Your Student Wants To Talk To You, Drop Everything And Pay Attention • How Do You Know Your Student Wants to Talk to You? • He/she hangs around you but might not say anything. • He/she says they don’t feel well but nothing seems to be physically wrong. • He/she tries to get you alone-i.e. might want to accompany you to the grocery store. • He/she says they want to talk but that it’s ‘no big deal’ or ‘it’s about a friend’.
