Re: "Sexting".
It is a difficult thing to monitor. In the middle school the students are not allowed to have cell phones with them, they are supposed to be in their lockers. You know that never happens. We then have to confiscate them and have the parents come and pick them up-when we usually get yelled at by parents for taking them away! The cell phones are disruptive to learning, they text each other and do things mentioned in the OP-the parents never bother looking at their kids phones to read the messages, no parental control anymore. And if for some reasons in the middle of class take the phone, and have a few classes to teach until we can get to the office to turn it in, we are responsible if the phone is stolen for some reason. Puts us in the hot seat all the time.
