Tyler is 15 and Hannah is 14. They have been seeing each other for 6 weeks. Tyler sends Hannah a picture of himself with his shirt off….he’s pretty happy with his body after lifting a few weights lately. He asks Hannah to send a shot of herself with her top off too. Hannah takes a topless shot and sends this to Tyler who keeps the photo.

Did anyone break any laws here?

Tyler can’t believe his luck after receiving the topless photo from Hannah. He is desperate to show his mates. The only topless girls they’ve seen have been in pornography but this is someone from their very own school. He knows Hannah doesn’t care much about what people think of her but he doesn’t want to upset her or miss out on anything else she might send him. He asks her if its ok to send it to his friend Jacob. She gives him permission and he sends the photo on to Jacob who is also 15.

Mathew is 19 and is happily in love with his sweetheart Emily 17. They have been together 3 years. Their friends say things like “how do you know they’re the one. You’ve never even been with anyone else” but they are happy with each other. They’ve also found ways to keep their relationship interesting. They’ve been sending sexy pictures of themselves to each other over Snapchat. The images on Snapchat are deleted after a few seconds but Mathew takes screenshots of them so he can keep them.

Madison is 17, her motto is you only live once. She doesn’t care if people think she’s immature she just wants to have fun. Zach is 14 and has been dating Madison after they hooked up at the skate park. Madison has been encouraging Zach to send her ‘dick pics’ and sends him nude photos of herself saying things like “Here’s mine now show me yours”. Zach felt uncomfortable at first but has started sending dick pics to Madison. He told Madison he doesn’t care if she sends them on to her friends either they’re hilarious. She forwards them to her friends and everyone gets a good laugh.

Is anyone here breaking the law?
