Another website I have become addicted to is wrongnumbertexts.com. This website is where people can go and put a snapshot of texts that they have received from people who have the wrong number. Some are from people that they don’t know, some are from people that they do know, but have just sent it to the wrong person.
Now imagine your dad sending you something racy meant for your mom. Eww gross, right? Or imagine meaning to text your friend details about something bad you did last night but somehow sending it to your mom. Big oopsie right? We are in a digital age and it makes for lots of cannon fodder!
While I truly enjoy and love to go to the sites and read about peoples interesting failures and mistakes, I do have to say that I think it has brought many bad things our way as well. Boys getting in trouble because girls are sending them dirty pictures of themselves and then the boys pass them around. It’s wrong on both their parts. Pedophiles have more access to our kids and most of our kids just don’t want to believe these things can happen to them, regardless of whether we tell them about it or we keep them sheltered.
We are definitely more aware of what is going on in our world today, and I think that’s a good thing, but I also wonder if it’s a bad thing too? Is ignorance really a good thing for some people? Is there any truth in what they say? That some people would not be doing some of the bad things they do, if it was not first brought to their attention by hearing or seeing it somewhere else? On the other hand I think it’s not fair to punish everyone because a few can’t control themselves? But are we already punishing people because these people end up doing atrocious things anyhow?? What’s the answer? I sure don’t know. I just hope they stay the heck away from me and mine and hope they get caught before they can hurt anybody.
Either way, if you’re bored and want a good laugh check out wrongnumbertexts.com.
