Boy gets text from stranger, hours later he's dead at home: FBI warning parents of new scam...

Heartbreaking. " 'Teen brains are still developing' said Dr. Scott Hadland, chief of adolescent medicine". I've read it approximately age 22 is when trustworthy decision making can be expected . . .
It is heart-breaking. Parents and grandparents didn't have the same "challenges" growing up, so it is more difficult to be prepared and talk to kids in advance. There are no doubt many "standard" rules parents should demand when granting a mobile phone to their kids, but do they? One would be: DO NOT under any conditions take nude photos of yourself and sent them to anyone.
A few years later and they if they choose otherwise they will learn such things compromise employability!

I am amazed at how quick people are to text pictures of their junk. I have a much younger female friend. She will contact some guy on a dating web site and after just a few texts over a couple of days she gets a picture of the guy’s junk. Some women do the same. Insane to me.

Horrible brother Dale, never heard this before.
