 “an evening playing ‘smartphone’ pub quiz with the exeter twitterati!” by Phil Campbell, cropped, is licensed under CC BY 2.0 You picked up your teen’s phone and saw some explicit sexting messages between, say, your son and his new girlfriend. What to do? Teen therapists Lorraine and Richard Platt offer these tips:
Don’t panic. It’s not an emergency. Before you do or say anything about your teenager sexting, make sure you have a game plan. Talk to your partner if you have one to think through what you want to say, and make sure you’re not reactive or fearful when you go to your son.
Mark interviews Richard Platt about Teen Issues, Counseling and Mentoring. Richard talks about how he works with teens and addresses their issues, helping mentor teens to overcome life’s challenges.
