The 40 Developmental Assets® framework was created by Search Institute consisting of preventative measures, positive experiences, and qualities that young people need to grow up healthy, caring and responsible. These assets are protective factors that have been consistently shown, by research, to buffer youth from risk. The more assets a child has the higher probability that child will not be involved in behaviors such as: teen pregnancy, school dropout, substance abuse, delinquency or violence.

This document discusses the legal and social risks of sexting for minors. It notes that taking, sharing, or possessing nude photos of anyone under 18 is considered child pornography, which is a felony offense. Those convicted could be required to register as sex offenders and may face restrictions on where they can live and work. Once images are sent digitally, the sender loses control over how they are shared. While sexting may seem harmless, it can have serious lifelong consequences like legal trouble and limitations due to being listed on a sex offender registry. The document warns teens not to take or send nude photos and to tell trusted adults if they feel pressure to sext.
