and it's not just computers that parents should be worried about

Cessnapuppy, thank you. Your post about kids choosing their friends wisely reminded me of something I meant to include in my post last night..

The law on extreme porn extends way beyond computers and covers any device capable of holding/displaying an image. These days, every child has a mobile phone right? Now I'm of an age where my mobile is used to call people or send them texts and that's it. Technology is leaving me behind and CSjunior thinks I'm some kind of dinosaur because I have no idea how to send video clips to all my friends, as teenagers apparantly do...

and this teenager probably now wishes his mate hadn't done :
Thankfully, he didn't get sent down but thanks to something that happened when he was 15-ish and wasn't then illegal, he now has a criminal record for the rest of his life. Scary stuff !
