Sext Up Kids - How children are becoming hyper-sexualized

We started this segment with a scene from a new documentary called Sext Up Kids, that airs on CBC Television's Doc Zone tonight.

From push up bras for pre-teens to hard core porn on cell phones, the film looks at what effect this is all having on young people-- really young people. We're going to talk about the film this morning, and a warning, some of its subject matter is very explicit -- even for adults

D - sexting with pics runs afoul of pornography laws in a hurry.
It was not this complicated when I was growing up. I bought a huge VHS-based camcorder in high school. That makes a foolish impulse like pic-sexting far too difficult to engage in without thought.

I suppose that girl who plays Hannah Montana, Miley Cyrus, once she slipped off the leash of her handlers, is the highest-profile 'fail' in this respect to date.

I was horrified to hear that some clothing companies make thongs for kids. That is just plan wrong!
