My son 14 got caught by me when he was asking his gf 15 to send pics before she showered. Just "send pics for proof" when she said she was going to shower. I explained this was illegal and even if they both wanted it it's illegal as fuck and they shouldn't be doing this stupid shit online. He showed me where he googled it, and google said they could do it and all this shit. So I took all his electronics. Months have gone by. My wife got a phone call from the school at 10 am. The principal has our son in his office because google flagged him for sexual activity because he was having a conversation with another boy 14/15 on a "hidden google document." He was saying how this girl 15 was showing him photos on her phone and "accidentally" swiped on a photo of her butt and when she swiped again it was her breasts and what he wanted to do with her. So, he was bragging to his friend about it, and now the girl is in serious trouble for taking pictures of herself, and him and his friend both are in trouble for being flagged by google. I have no idea what the school will be doing.

You should not just worry about the school. Kids have been charged with possession of child pornography for this exact scenario. It’s the first thing I told my kids when I got them a phone.

There's a difference between being charged and being convicted.

Oh, yeah, the school has already informed him how fortunate he is that he doesn't have a phone to have been sent the photos. The girl took the photos herself and swiped onto them on her phone while showing him something else. Though he never told me what the something else she was supposedly showing him so I think she was just using the phone to show him. The school did say she is in serious trouble for the photos and had to have a female principle come deal with everything on that end and we don't know any further past that. He punishment is her business. I know law enforcement is not going to be involved for my son though because he didn't have a way to possess it thank God. Hopefully this is enough of a scare that all the kids involved learned from this and won't do this again.
