DO U NO THE NEW LAW ON SEXTING?
According to a new Georgia state law, there may be sex offenders throughout Dodge County High and Middle Schools. The law, which took effect May 5, states that anyone caught “sexting” with someone under the age of 16 can be imprisoned up to 10 years for child molestation and will spend the rest of their life as a registered sex offender. Sexting is the act of sending sexually explicit messages and/or pictures via cell phone, and according to a nationwide survey, 20% of American teens “sext” regularly. Meaning, it is very likely that your child attends school with a sex offender.
