Cyber sexual abuse and teen sex offenses?

I have added a new page to my www.teenvideogameaddiction.com website that is devoted to forensic evaluations for internet sex crimes -- specifically focusing on teens and young adults who have been arrested for downloading child pornography. More and more teens are being arrested on child porn charges and the vast majority are actually victims of cyber sexual abuse -- meaning they were prematurely exposed to porn on the internet and went on to develop trauma from this exposure. Their use of child porn as a form of sexual stimulation is simply a symptom of their abuse and not a reflection of their true sexual orientation.

I have included a forensic report you can read that clearly explains cyber sexual abuse and cyber sex offenses. This is a crucial issue because law enforcement is treating teen cyber sex offenders as legitimate threats to public safety -- where in fact they are not a threat at all. We need to get out in front of this epidemic of cyber sex abuse and educate law enforcement, district attorneys, and judges.
