Here’s the story, as told to me by a loyal reader. I’m awaiting more information about the naked photos that some cheerleaders at Owen High School apparently sent to their football-playing boyfriends while they were away at football camp.

    These comments are as funny as the article. Sure it’s a little off-color in topic alone, but a photo alone isn’t unsafe or illegal. Absolutely the parents COULD do something, and the school doesn’t need to be totally uninvolved, but it’s the teenagers who are doing stupid things, so hold them responsible, and no one else, and no other influences. There are lots of influences out there, and it’s your own decision which you listen to. These are some stupid kids having fun, and as long as they have the sense to keep it at that no one need get involved. The "Sex and Violence" scenario where sex gets thrown in with some other horrible dilemma it has nothing to do with has been around for decades, nay, centuries, and has stood its ground quite obliviously.

    First — Stop Automatically printing sex as bad: A teenager DOES have the ability to make decisions, and should be able to practice that ability and see the results.

    Second — The school has no business in this.

    Third — The parents should inform their kids, that’s it, and if this behavior is still present, all the power to the kids. It isn’t self-destructive, however degrading it may be.

    I think a more pressing problem is what the h-e double tooth picks is the reason the school got involved in the first place. This was not on school property or during a school function. It is none of their business. Somewhere along the way the school administration started perceiving they have some kind of authority over the students after school hours.

    Until these pictures are released to the public, it is impossible to determine whether this was an error in judgment which exemplifies the degradation of society, or if it’s a turn-on. I’m inclined to think it was the latter.

    Haha! I clicked wondering what news there was about that old story, and the answer is NONE. I’m sure naked cheerleaders get lots of hits. Every once in a while you should slip those words in. "Citizen Times lawsuit moves forward…(naked cheerleaders!)

    Don’t talk like our kids are animals without control. Teenagers don’t HAVE to do anything. This is an issue because they are to young to understand the consequences of such sexual choices. The problem is the PARENTS ARE NOT BEING PARENTS, for goodness sake!

    Here again, Why is this even news???Lets see ……how many other teenagers are having sex?
    I’d say this is the safest thing .Girls are having sex in cars, boys look at their dads porn mags, kids are inquisitive when it comes to these things……
    Kids drink on the weekends, THEY ARE TEENAGERS for goodness sake
