Cell phones are everywhere. Almost everyone uses a mobile device to communicate with others. The spurred growth of cell phone usage has resulted in an increase in the number of teens who have engaged in sexting. Parents should be aware...

A survey was distributed by the National Campaign and some alarming statistics were revealed regarding teens that sent text messages with lewd and sexual content.
