Love isn't forever... but photographs are

Colleen, like many 15-year-olds, liked taking pictures and videos of her and her friends on her camera phone. Colleen had started dating Kyle, a friend from school, near the beginning of the semester. The two would do fun things like send each other pictures of themselves from their computers and cell phones.

One day, Kyle sent a text message to Colleen asking for a sexy picture. She was a bit nervous, but still sent a couple pictures of what she thought was her "sexy face". Kyle replied that he liked them, but that he wanted something a little more revealing, and asked her to pose topless.

Colleen didn't know what to do, but figured she was in the privacy of her bedroom, so it was OK—after all, she liked and trusted Kyle. She took one picture without her shirt on, and sent it to Kyle before she could change her mind. Over the next month, Kyle's requests for sexy pictures increased. Eventually Colleen didn't feel as uneasy about it, and sent a variety of semi-nude or nude photos to Kyle.

Kyle and Colleen eventually broke up; Kyle sent Colleen a text message that was crude and nasty, letting her know that they were through. Colleen was shocked and upset, but had some good friends to give her support. Then one day she noticed some boys looking at her, whispering and snickering. That afternoon Colleen heard Kyle called down to the office. Half an hour later, she was called down as well.

Kyle was nowhere to be seen—in fact, the principal explained, he had been expelled. She later learned that Kyle was facing criminal charges and a $10,000 fine. The principal told her that Kyle had printed a collection of Colleen's nude photos and made them into a collage, which he then posted in the boy's locker room.

It got worse—the principal had called her parents for a meeting with Colleen, the principal and the guidance counsellor... Colleen said the embarrassment she felt at school was the worst part of the whole experience!
