Child Pornography - Behavioural insights on Adolescent Sexuality: A Commentary

Abstract Exposure to the modern internet world has resulted in positive and negative impacts on children, adolescents, and adults. Advancements in technology and exposure to the internet have tremendously contributed to the rise in online crimes involving children. Child pornography is a dreadful offense that can knowingly or unknowingly destroy the mental and physical health of a child involved in it. Watching pornography, showing sexual behaviours, and being curious about understanding sexuality is a part of the normal behaviour of an adolescent. However, these behavioural changes leading to dangerous habits need serious attention. Adolescent sexuality is significantly associated with their habits during development and peer groups. When these habits turn into addictions, clinical measures must be considered. Keywords: Child pornography. Behaviour, Adolescents, Adolescent sexualit
