Abnormal sexual behaviours among young boys : Porn and its influence

All children have a sexuality within themselves which they express in different ways, some children explore their sexuality more than others. Natural sexual exploration is normal but in case of deviating or abnormal sexual behavior it needs to be addressed. The aim of this study is to find out what exactly an abnormal sexual behavior is and how it is defined. This study also covers if pornography has an effect on sexual behavior and what kind of interventions that are available to help this group of children. The method used in this study is a literature search where two databases have been used. These are Psycinfo and Sociological Abstracts. A selection of 21 articles that were peer reviewed and considered relevant to our study was chosen and used to obtain a result. The result of our study addresses how abnormal sexual behavior amongst young boys is harmful not only for the children themselves but also whoever gets exposed to the harmful behavior. Children with abnormal sexual behavior can explore their sexuality on anyone. It can be with strangers or children younger than themselves and at the same time using coercion and violence. Children with abnormal sexual behavior have a sexual behavior similar to adults. The result has also shown that there can be various different reasons to why an abnormal sexual behavior occurs. It can be the cause of trauma, former sexual abuse, a disfunctional family or a lack of social skills. Pornography also has a big impact on the behavior and can cause a lot of negative consequences for children. There is a large variation of interventions that are offered to children with these kinds of problems.There is everything from individual therapy, CBT treatment to support and help for the family as a whole. The most important thing is to help the child as fast as possible to prevent recidivism
