It's so easy to keep in touch with family these days - whether it's a quick phonecall, WhatsApp message or a text on your way out the door.
But one young lady learned the hard way that she should be paying more attention to what she's sending her parents.
The anonymous woman sent a selfie to her parents and sister via iMessage, but only realised after it was delivered that there were two sex toys in the shot.
Panicking, she then sent a text to her sister saying: "OK mayday mayday. That pic I just sent has not one but 2 dildos in it."
She asked her to 'spam' the family group message to get rid of the picture so her parents wouldn't see it.
It's not known whether her mum and dad spotted the toys - but if they did we can bet it caused some red faces around the dinner table.
