Not going through a child’s phone can also be a slippery slope.

I’m sure there are plenty of 14-year-olds out there having sex, but frick (no pun intended) me not being overly concerned about it if it’s MY kid having the sex. And frick there’s not really much I can do about it. My kids aren’t quite there yet, but this can’t be the typical parent attitude towards sex that young.
I agree with you, but you’re in the minority.
What we’re seeing as teachers from kids as young as 12 and 13 (in an affluent area mind you) is downright scary. Kids are having free access to Tik Tok which has zero age restrictions or filters for kids that age. They can easily spend hours a day consuming material that oversexualizes young girls and cultivates a carefree attitude regarding sex.
Is it unhealthy and detrimental? I think so, but there is a huge generational gap between teenagers today and even millennials. Many teenagers are sucked into social media and projecting a sexual persona based on the popular users they follow.
I’d recommend scrolling your kids’ Tik Tok FYP before trying to snoop on their messages. You’ll learn more about their psyche based on what the algorithm is throwing at them every day.

Tell him to not touch that ho. She prolly got an STD. I wouldn't go to the parents. I would just parent my own child so they don't end up texting other kids about having sex with other people.

Only if you don't give a shite about them.

You and your son should blackmail the little hussy.

I'm nearly 50 and there were sexually active kids when I was in middle school, so it's not like it's a new phenomenon. Still, my daughter is 13 and her and her friends don't even date, and I don't get the impression from listening to their convos that many kids in her class are dating. I know casual sex is more common these days, and I know they have a more casual attitude to sex in general than we did at that age, but I just haven't seen any evidence to support the notion that sex among 13-14 year olds is rampant.
Hell, I don't even really see it with my 16 year old son and his friends, though I'm sure it's happening. I'm not that naive.

My buddy's daughter is 13 and I was pretty surprised when my wife showed me some of the things she posts on Instagram.

No it isn’t.

She wants to be cool and what is cool right now is not ok for me. She can have all that shite when she turns 18 and is an adult and is paying her own phone bill.

My kids don't have phones. My wife and I have phones we let them use.

It's interesting to see how easy it is to differentiate the posters with children from the posters who are twenty something keyboard warriors.
I may be the Resident OT perv here. But I have 3 daughters, two are teens.
I'd wanna know by any means necessary and I'd try and protect the kid's identity who got caught with her messages on his phone(eg your kid). I'd definitely tell the parents. At minimum they need to get that girl on BC under the guise of helping with menstruation(the excuse sluts at my HS used for taking it).
ETA: I don't go through my kids' phones at all. They all make good grades and aren't getting in trouble outside of school. No reason to. Yet.

My daughter is the same age and she doesn't date. Kids her age just hang out with each other on their phones and at school.
Thinking back about being that age, I had a girlfriend at 13 but I wasn't trying to have sex yet. A year or two later that was a different story.

I was terrified to talk to girls until I was 15(summer after sophomore year). Probably b/c I was almost the youngest in my class every year and bullied a good bit until I growed alot.

Sounds like you have serious trust issues.

I had the same girlfriend from the 6th grade until Sophomore year of HS. We fooled around a little when we were pretty young but I definitely was not having sex at 13.

Also I have super duper parental controls on the 14 year olds phone. She has an 8th grade chat with her class I monitor. I also have let them BOTH know that anything you post or snap or put on social media NEVER goes away and can be used against you. My 13 year old doesn't get that so that is another reason why no social media is allowed.
My kids don't have phones.

Hell, I didn't even have a fully developed dong at 13 to have sex with. Not like I had a GF I could have used it on anyway. I was 15 before I started fooling around, and that was just hand stuff.

My issue is that we don't have a home phone and my daughter is old enough to stay home by herself some.
