      Have you seen SnapChat? The whole point of it is that kids don't want any history AT ALL. Literally they want to deliver the message and have it burn, Mission Impossible style. It's super popular because they don't want anyone to be able to remember or trace or show parents or something like that. It is all the rage and has been for a while. It's the most worthless communications system you have ever seen and when they are adults they are going to seriously regret having recorded, and deleted, their entire lives. But that's what kids do today even more than FB and Instagram.

      I don't use it, so I couldn't remember which one did what.

      But is this lack of data really any different than when we were kids? Probably not. I don't have pictures that I took, memo's/notes, etc that made when I was a kid.

      What I do have are the pictures my parents took (when they did) and they are all on pieces of paper scattered to the four corners.

      At least these kids have the pictures their parents took and posted to places like FB, etc.

      I have every picture that I took as a kid. You can see them all on Flickr.

      The difference is, those of us who don't have that stuff it's because there was no reasonable way to store it. For these kids, they intentionally threw it away. We long for things we didn't have. They will regret things that they had and threw away. We have no fault to bear, they do. And kids making decisions like this, I assume, have parents not too likely to be being careful about protecting memories either.

        Well currently at least one of them is 17 and the other is 15 and at least one of them texts from friends phones 😛

        See rebellion 😛

        But doesn't email with her own account... she shares texts with someone else. See... still sharing.

        Because she was given no other choice - I suppose she could have setup an email account, but that leaves traces - and assuming the parents found out she'd be in trouble. In this situation, the parents have forced her into a sharing situation that probably provides her deniability. But it's not by choice, it's by survival due to parental ludditism.

          Yup, could have easily set up an email account. Text leaves traces too.

            Sure, but if names aren't included, you have to make a lot of assumptions to lay blame on the non owner of the device.

              how would email be any different?

                that's a great point, I suppose it really wouldn't be. Just use gmail or whatever free service you can, only access it away from the house. Short of being caught red handed, deniability ensues.

                  Exactly. Just don't put your name in the email address 🙂
