Mother turns over sexting 13-year-old daughter to police for ‘harsh’ punishment
By Scott Kaufman
Sunday, August 24, 2014 11:48 EDT
A Virginia mother turned her 13-year-old daughter over to police after she found nude images of the teen on her phone and tablet, CBS 6 News reports.
The Dinwiddie, Virginia mother — whose name will not be revealed, to protect her daughter’s identity — said that she discovered the images after she found her daughter using her phone and tablet at 4 a.m. last week. She confiscated the eighth grader’s electronics and began to look through the recent activity, where she found photographs both of her daughter and her peers.
“Looking through the phone and the tablet we did find sexual pictures, conversations that were very inappropriate for her age,†she told CBS 6 News.
She then took the drastic step of turning her daughter in to sheriff’s department. “We did this now to protect her for now and in the future, because this could get worse. She could be taken,†the teen’s mother said. “What she’s facing may be harsh, but we feel it’s for her own protection.â€

5. Unless an adult is soliciting or taking such photos I doubt any law has been broken her
Not by the girl or her peers.
And it's outrageous that the mother would turn her daughter over to the the police to be humiliated publicly. There are far better ways of dealing with this kind of behavior, which by the way, is based on very normal activity in teens.
What the hell does the mother want the police to do? Arrest her and conduct a body search and throw her in jail?! Post her arrest photo online for everyone to see? Register her as a sex offender?
I think the mother should be arrested for endangering a minor and for permanently saddling her daughter with a police record.
...because primitives are known for their sage parenting advice.

20. What is wrong with parents who turn their kids over to police
for discipline? I really don't get it. I had a friend whose mother turned her in for shoplifting lipstick. She was put in detention, had to go to court and essentially had her life ruined. Even the store would have accepted payment for the item and an apology.
Most likely more to it than that. Not a good bouncy at all.

36. My mother called police on me many times when I was a teen
because I was "incorrigible". But, my mother is a nutcase.

37. Was this mother ever 13
“Looking through the phone and the tablet we did find sexual pictures, conversations that were very inappropriate for her age,†she told CBS 6 News.
She's in denial that "her" child can't be doing that. She may be thinking someone is making her do this, and an investigation will clear everything up.
Better go hide in the wilds of NH... oh, wait...

If the mother did anything more then say " please stop" the DUmbasses would be calling the police on her.

Ain't that the truth. This is what happens when the police state village is expected to raise a child....the police are expected to correct child behavior.....by the way, where was Hitlery and her village with their great parenting skills?

Typical DUmmies, they consider the mother's actions more abnormal then the 13 year old's.

Look at what you're dealing with. Of course they're going to go after the mother--she's an 'authority figure' that a bunch of bull dykes probably want out of the way (the better to go after the 13-year old and convert her to being a lesbian).

Today they're in Ferguson, MO.
As far as this mother is concerned, do we know what else is involved? Where and to whom did these kids send their nude pictures?
The mother said she was afraid her daughter might get "taken". What if these 18 yr old boys were into child porn or used the pictures as black mail.
I don't see this as a simple cut and dried decision about whether to get the cops involved or not.
-
If it were my child, I definitely wouldn't start out calling the police. There'd be some major discipline and then getting others involved first. But there's not enough background on the family itself, the mother and what she's having to deal with, or other acts the child has done that might have led to this, in order to condemn her for it. I wouldn't have wanted it in the newspaper, that's for sure.

Actually, the girl is guilty of distribution of child porn and any one who she sent the pictures to is guilty of possession of child porn. If a recipient is over 17, God help them.

Yep, most states will prosecute minors for those crimes.

I agree. Back when I was 13 years old (the days of rotary dialing phones and party lines) my parents would have taken a belt and tore my ass out of the frame, but a parent can't do that these days.

Exactly......and we weren't allowed to stay on the phone but a minute or two.
Whippings and fear of my daddy finding out did more to deter me from doing stupid stuff more than anything the police or laws could do.

Seven words you did not want to hear:
"You wait until your father gets home."

I was twelve years old I believe. I had a friend over. We had went into dad's shed to get something. I can't remember what we were looking for. I ended up running into a spider web. I told my friend, "I've got a damn spider web all over me." Mama heard me. She said the words, "wait until your daddy gets home."
I had to spend the next 4 or 5 hours in anticipation of what was to come.
Dad's belt explained that while we may have spider webs in the shed we did not have any DAMN spider webs in the shed.

Something like this was probably playing in your mind for those five hours:

Pretty much.

Yep, it's still kiddie porn, even if the kiddie is the one who sent it.

We have had problems with girls sending pictures to my boys. I tried, first, talking to the girls about how very dangerous it is because once you send out those pictures you can't get them back. With one girl in particular it made no difference. The next time I spoke to her parents and pointed out that while their daughter was 18 and could do whatever stupid thing she wanted, my boy was 14! Somehow the Dad picked up that his daughter could get charged with distribution to a minor and, suddenly, that little problem moved to Texas (from NC).
