Q: How do you turn off group message in IOS7?

I have gone into Settings > Messages and the option to 'turn off group messages' is not there. Does anyone else have this same issue? If so, how do we send the same message to several people but not as a group message?

iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.3

    The group message setting pertains to MMS only. If your account isn't provisioned for MMS, the setting won't appear

     

    To send iMessage to multiple recipients, add additional numbers/email addresses separated by a comma

    Hi modular747,

     

    I'm sorry but I don't quite get what you are saying. I can send and recieve group messages no problem. What I want to do is sometimes turn it off so the message still goes out to everyone but then when they reply it only comes back to me so people don't have to worry about others reading their replies (I hope that I have made that easy enough to understand?)
