Some scout members got a chance to hear from people who work daily in the juvenile justice system about the dangers of what they post or say online.

The Scout meeting was held at Canfield United Methodist Church.

Scouts BSA Troops 8025 and 9025 invited a juvenile prosecutor and court counselors to talk with troop members about bullying, sexting, and sextortion or sharing revenge pictures.

"It's so important that youth understand that one wrong action can have repercussions for the rest of their lives," said Suzanne Heino Scout Master Girls Troop Leader.

If you wouldn't give out your social security or credit card number,  it should be the same turning down any request to take nude pictures and share them with others, even with a boyfriend, girlfriend, or new online friend you think you can trust.

"It's a very common question. It happens a lot. Although it's illegal and inappropriate, it's extremely unhealthy this happens every day to our kids and in every community throughout the world," said James DeLucia Director of Clinical Services with the Mahoning Juvenile Court.

Troop members learned about a Florida teen who was criminally charged, convicted, and must register as a sex offender because he shared nude pictures of his ex-girlfriend a teen, who had broken up with him. The young man talked about how when he was angry he shared the pictures as revenge but it was not the right thing to do to his former girlfriend or to himself due to the consequences he continues to face.

They also heard from a mom of a teen in Cincinnati whose daughter committed suicide after she was bullied continually. Her ex-boyfriend shared her nude pictures and others also hit send. The pictures were shared by students in a few school districts, and the mom talked about how her daughter couldn't take the embarrassment, betrayal, and extreme bullying.

 Troop members believe being aware is helpful.

"By learning about it I think I'm a little more prepared than some of my classmates who don't know how to deal with it," said Emily Heino who is a sophomore and member in the Scouts.

"Before you hit send online, you need to take into account not just the effect it has on you, but the effect it has on everyone. It could end up having a very detrimental effect on someone else's life where it doesn't mean that much to you," added Cade Henry, a sophomore and member of the Scouts.

Members signed a pledge not to bully and use their cell phones and online devices appropriately.

They also pledged to follow Scout's rules.

If your school or organization is interested in inviting juvenile justice workers to share information about the dangers of the internet and how to avoid them you can contact the Mahoning Juvenile Justice Department.

Scouts Leader Suzanni Heino tells 21 News that parents can look up basic guidelines to internet etiquette or Netiquette, or along with tips for internet safety.

James DeLucia tells parents they should set rules and let their children know the rules. In addition, he says parents should start talking with kids and teens when they use their first tablet or smartphone, or computer, in age-appropriate ways, about what to do if they get asked by anyone to take a nude or partially nude picture of themself and to share it.

He also tells 21 News, parents should know their kids' and teens' passwords, and monitor what sites their kids are visiting, and learn about photo vaults where kids and teens can hide pictures and videos. DeLucia explained parents should do this to help keep their kids and teens safe, and to keep them out of the juvenile court as well.
