susiec, posting risque photos can be so dangerous and young people just don't seem to realize that. Once a photo is out there it is out there forever and can be used by anyone. Also, employers and colleges often check facebook and myspace pages of prospective employees/students and if they don't like what they see it can influence the decision on whether someone is hired or accepted or not. Teens don't seem to realize that. Another thing is, if the teen is underage and putting risque pics out there and someone 18 or older gets them, they can be considered in possession of child pornography and can be arrested and later have to register as a sex offender for the rest of their lives. (I recently saw news stories about this). I hope your niece listens to you and stops posting photos.
