Sign of the Times

Yesterday, I read the following Reader's Digest headline:
"Are your children SEXTING?"
Underneath was a picture of an iPhone.

I imagine that, around the birth of the internet, that headline would have read:
"Are your children cybersexing?"

And the birth of the phone:
"Are your children canoodling via the telephone?"

And the birth of Morse code:
".. ___ ... __ . _ . More like ...__.._._. Is this lecherous world tapping into your children's minds?"

The parents' answer? Always, "Of course not! MY children would never engage in sexting/cyber-phone sex/morsex, but have you seen the Jones' daughter Mindy? Always wearing those tight low-rise jeans/neon pink leggings/ankle-length skirts? I bet that little slut started the whole thing."
