Lesson Overview

11.10 – Sexting and Child Exploitation Laws: Sexting might seem private or harmless, but it can break serious laws if minors are involved. Sharing or receiving sexual images of anyone under 18 counts as child exploitation under federal law. Even if it’s between two teens, the act is still illegal. Many youth don’t realize they could be charged as offenders for sending their own image. Law enforcement treats these cases seriously to protect minors from harm and trafficking. Once images are online, they can never be fully deleted. Teens can end up on lifelong offender lists for actions they thought were private. Understanding consent and legal limits keeps everyone safer. Technology adds risk, but awareness brings control. Respecting digital boundaries builds trust and responsibility. Choosing to stop and think before sharing protects reputation and freedom. Even a single image can cause emotional, social, and legal damage that lasts for years. The law always prioritizes safety over intent, and that’s a rule worth remembering.
