Sexting

Few know what Sexting means but probably have been doing it anyway. It is the act of sending sexually explicit material via mobile phones such as naughty texts or pornographic images of oneself via MMS.
What you probably miss out of this is that such messages and images are not private. They can be shown to others and even shared via Bluetooth! You don't know who ends up reading/viewing them!
Be aware that distributing such material is considered child pornography (since you are still under age) and it is a crime. Moreover you also risk that your phone is confiscated so that all evidence against you is retrieved - even if already deleted!

Quoting from Wikipedia: "In 2007, 32 Australian teenagers from the state of Victoria were prosecuted as a result of sexting activity. Child pornography charges were brought against six teenagers in Greensburg, Pennsylvania in January 2009 after three girls sent sexually explicit photographs to three male classmates."
