Teens and Sexting
How and why minor teens are sending sexually suggestive nude or nearly nude images via text messaging.
4% of cell-owners ages 12 to 17 have sent sexually suggestive images of themselves by phone; 15% of cell owners that age have received “sexts” containing images of someone they know.
A quarter of all teens ages 16 to 17 have texted while driving.
