3. No parent wants to hear that their child is using their cell phone inappropriately, but most likely they have or will.  This site offers tips on the technology out there in order to be proactive, discussion ideas to have with your middle-schooler, and guidance on what to do once the sexting has occurred.  Also, additional resources.
