9. What is sexting? When people talk about sexting, they usually mean sending and receiving: -naked pictures or 'nudes' -'underwear shots' -sexual or 'dirty pics' -rude text messages or videos. They can be sent to or from a friend, boyfriend, girlfriend or someone you've met online. Sexting can easily happen. Things can go wrong – even when you didn't mean for them to.

10. What you need to know about sexting:
once you send a message you can't control what happens to it
don't let someone guilt or pressure you into sending a sex text
if you've sent a nude pic, have an honest conversation with the person you sent it to. Ask them to delete it
if an indecent or nude pic of you is posted online, you can contact the website directly or speak to a Childline counsellor about having it removed.

11. Is sexting illegal?
If you send a photo of anyone (even yourself) in a state of undress e.g. wearing underwear/ nothing at all and if you are under 18 years old... you could get a criminal conviction for distributing an indecent image.
If you pressure someone into taking a photo or you share a sexual photo with someone, you’re breaking the law. The police have the power to decide whether it’s for the best to record what’s happened or to take things further. But the law is there to protect young people, not punish them.

13. Watch the video clip

14. Information on the Internet
Just because something is on the internet, it doesn’t mean that it is true
Anyone can create a web page, anyone can edit a Wikipedia page

15. How do I know if I can trust the website?
You will need to use your own judgement
A good rule of thumb is:
The information is similar across different websites – be RESOURCEFUL and check a few other websites, don’t just believe the first website you come across
The website has been updated recently – if the website hasn’t been updated since 2004, then the information probably isn’t correct anymore
The website has a way of contacting them
There are references for where the information was originally found

17. Task
In the same group as before, create a resource telling others how to stay safe online and how to make sure that you are using a website with trustworthy information on it
Include information about who people can go to if they are worried about something that is happening online
