Rick breaks it down
The dream team!
Check out these professional photos from National It’s Time to Talk Day with US Attorney General Eric Holder and Education Secretary Arne Duncan. Start Strong Rhode Island leaders Amber Johnson and Rick Rodriguez joined their peers to speak out about dating violence and encourage these top-level White House Officials to take action to build healthy teen relationships.
A recently released study from the Pew Internet & American Life Project finds that 15% of teens have received nude and/or sexually suggestive photos of peers over text messaging. The practice, known as “sexting”—the TIME-ranked top buzz word of 2009—is becoming a “relationship currency” for teens, many of whom think a suggestive picture could win them respect, security or love from a dating partner.
Youth are concerned about this issue and are speaking out. Check out hkupwithrespect’s “Let’s talk about Sexting” video on hkupwithrespect.com to see what you have to say about sexting and what we can all do to keep it in check.
For more information about sexting and digital abuse, check out MTV’s A Thin Line campaign for ways to keep your digital life safe and respectful. And stay tuned for CODE of CONDUCT, the first immersive digital game to help teens prevent digital abuse.
