RESUMEN
“Sexting” es un término que implica la recepción o transmisión de imágenes o videos que conllevan un contenido sexual a través de las redes sociales, ya sea con o sin autorización de quien los coloca en el medio. La difusión de tales videos o imágenes es instantánea, con consecuencias prácticamente siempre deletéreas para las personas involucradas. El presente trabajo se ilustra con dos casos observados en una clínica especializada en la atención de adolescentes, su evaluación y manejo. Se presentan las características particulares de este fenómeno social que parece estar en aumento en todo el orbe, especialmente entre los jóvenes de clases medias o altas, que se prodiga en el mundo de las redes sociales. Se enfatizan sus consecuencias. Finalmente, se presentan consideraciones pertinentes acerca del papel preventivo que pueden tener tanto la familia como la escuela.
