Imagine finding out that a text was received by your daughter from one of her male schoolmates – of his penis.
She is horrified. Embarrassed. Bewildered.
And eleven years old.
Now imagine being the parents of this 11 year old who find out about this incident several months later. What do you do to help your daughter? What should the school do since it happened on their campus? How do you transform your anger and negative feelings about this incident in to something positive?
Meet the Setla Family – who decided that the serious matters of cyber – bullying and sexting was a discussion that needed to go much farther than their kitchen table and in fact, in to the homes of tweens and teens – globally.
The “mission” for this family was clear- create a film and a series of educational materials that would address these topics and could be available for school and home viewing. I applaud the efforts of the Setla family and Ted’s media colleagues, all who have come together to create – #TXTGen
I have known Ted Setla for many years and agreed to help him with this film on many different levels. Starting with this invitation to all of you … Please accept this invite to join the filmmakers, including Ted Setla – the dad of this true story, to a TWEETCHAT thisWednesday – April 8th – #TXTGen
