CHILD

PORNOGRAPHY

PREPARED BY:
RECHILLE ANN ABILLO
O Child pornography (also called child sexual abuse
material or child porn) is pornography that exploits children
 for sexual stimulation. It may be produced with the direct
involvement or sexual assault of a child (also known as 
child sexual abuse images or it may be 
simulated child pornography. Abuse of the child occurs during
the sexual acts or lascivious exhibitions of genitals or pubic
areas which are recorded in the production of child
pornography. Child pornography may use a variety of mediums,
including writings, magazines, photos, sculpture, drawing,
painting, animation, sound recording,  film, video, and 
video games. Child pornography may be created for profit or
other reasons.
O Laws regarding child pornography
 generally include sexual images involving
prepubescent's, pubescent, or post-
pubescent minors and computer-generated
images that appear to involve them. Most
possessors of child pornography who are
arrested are found to possess images of
prepubescent children; possessors of
pornographic images of post-pubescent
minors are less likely to be prosecuted, even
though those images also fall within the
statutes.
O The prepubescent pornography is viewed and
collected by pedophiles for a variety of purposes,
ranging from private sexual uses, trading with other
pedophiles, preparing children for sexual abuse as
part of the process known as "child grooming", or
enticement leading to entrapment for sexual
exploitation such as production of new child
pornography or child prostitution. Children
themselves also sometimes produce child
pornography on their own initiative or by the 
coercion of an adult.
O Child pornography is illegal and censored in
most jurisdictions in the world. Ninety-four
of 187 Interpol member states had laws
specifically addressing child pornography
as of 2008, though this does not include
nations that ban all pornography. Of those
94 countries, 58 criminalized possession of
child pornography regardless of intent to
distribute. Both distribution and possession
are now criminal offenses in almost all
Western countries.
O A wide movement is working to globalize
the criminalization of child pornography,
including major international organizations
such as the United Nations and the 
European Commission. Producers of child
pornography try to avoid prosecution by
distributing their material across national
borders, though this issue is increasingly
being addressed with regular arrests of
suspects from a number of countries
occurring over the last few years.
