Okay,. I hope you have all enjoyed venting your emotions on the matter. Empathy is absolutely appreciated. Now going forward, may I set an example here and ask you all to do similar in the future: Include how it could have been handled better.
There are many ways to go at a situation like this. Teach the kids some social skills. Just a few off the top:
I understand, not always easy, more so at that age and dependent on personality. This style can be expanded, make it a thing. Nix the bullshx.
The Sheriff could have actually investigated. Snapchat retains copies of all messages sent, so the excuse that the messages are quickly deleted is entirely hollow. This is the production and distribution of CSAM, a very serious crime. The school should have cracked down on phone use while investigating a very serious crime
These are children. I cannot emphasize that enough. Children are being used for sexual gratification against their will. Your response to that is "own it"? You may want to review your position here
And in what way would that make the child being sexually exploited whole? It does not stop the person creating it. It does not stop them distributing it. In what way does belittling other children help her?
To reiterate one more time, this is a 13-year-old girl being sexually exploited against her will, yet here you are sounding like the President of the United States on a trip to Epstein island
There, a real answer, thank you! :)
You have to be rage baiting.
*rage collecting.
Not exactly. Be aware that this is a pandora's box sort of situation. The point is primarily to point focus towards the root of the issue: Proper parenting (and education).
No, it's not. That's not what a "pandora’s box" is. It's also not the victim's responsibility to address the root cause.
I do not understand your point, please elaborate.
Surprisingly effective! ^^
Nah, sometimes people need their asses beat.
When all else fails, sure.
When someone is passing around nude pictures of you and you've already went to the adults for help and got nowhere it is.
That would be the "when all else fails" part
I responded to the wrong comment. My bad.
Yes, we should be teaching 13 year old girls that violence is the answer.
🙄
When law enforcement and educators have failed you, maybe violence is the answer sometimes.
For someone that isn't violent towards you, anyone else, or your property?
I dunno... but maybe we were just raised differently. I couldn't imagine getting into a fight with someone in the real world over this. It'd be very dangerous and it's just not worth the risk.
I'd rather ignore them and move on, lol.
Yeah, you say that easily but nobody is spreading nudes of yours around, AI generated or not.
Violence isn't a solution but if it's the only option left, like it appeared here, it's justifiable.
That doesn't go to mention that, as per usual, in the US, the bullies are protected and the victims get their lives utterly destroyed. This little girl got expelled and had to switch schools because of what others did, and you're defending the bullies because of what exactly?
And your "suck it up" advise also seems to be a bit weird, considering this is child pornography.
People like you are the reason the world is in the state it is. If more assholes got the shit stomped out of them whenever they did asshole shit, we'd be a lot better off. Instead you motherfuckers expect everyone to turn the other cheek and get walked all over.
Your points 2, 3, and 4 would be possible options for adults, maybe for 18+.
But for a 13 year old it is defacto usexualizing a child.
God, I hope this doesn't get deleted because it needs to stay up. It's a great example of the Dunning-Kruger effect.
I fully agree that it is very inappropriate.
You clearly don't have kids or work in a school. Your advice is trash.
Interesting and incorrect analysis. Would you like to add some substance, or did you just need to vent?
Yeah you lame 13 year olds, can’t you even get laid?
The considered 'appropriate' age for sex varies across cultures. If we cool our heads and face reality: Many humans start showing interest in sex at even younger ages. Again: Parenting, education.
