2. Complaints

Our Newspapers and magazines show us lots of complaints about children who show sexual behavior - or behavior that is interpreted is as sexual behavior. The idea behind these complaints is that a child ought not to be a sexual being. And, if the appear to be so, the interpretation forces to give labels: to the one as the predator, to the other as the victim.

However, problems arise within this view if young children act in a more or less sexually way with each other: who is the predator, who is the victim? Who has to go to the police office, who may go to a treatment center?

Next articles are selected from a long pile. We present only a few, and have chosen to select those from the English speaking culture: USA, UK, Australia, New Zealand: Western countries with a culture that tends to flood other cultures with, until now, partly quite different views on children and sexuality.
