Summary/Abstract: The term sexting, born in 2005, is still in its prime. Relying on a rather large number of image types (contextual, inoffensive sexual, joke, offensive an unethical sexual, private selfies, or public selfies), sexting among youth may have many causes. This paper is an attempt at providing a school social worker’s job description by answering questions such as: Who Sexts young people? What categories of young people are sexted? Where does sexting occur? When does sexting occur? How are young people sexted? Why are young people sexted? What are the Consequences of Sexting? And What Should Schools Do?
