Probleme ale deviantei sexuale juvenile: copiii si tinerii care manifesta un comportament sexual infractional
Problems of juvenile sexual delinquency: children and teenagers that have a sexual delinquent behavior

Summary/Abstract: Sexual offences are the ones nominally sexual and the ones with sexual intention or component. The definition excludes the persons suspected of committing an offence and the persons that show a sexual behavior socially undesirable or deviated, but not precisely offencing. The youthful sexual offenders are the ones criminally sentenced for a sexual offence, considered to have discrimination for this kind of sentence, but not having the age for being criminally investigated and punished like adults. The researches underline the need of understanding the offencing sexual behaviour in the context of early life experiences and family experiences, and also in the context of some power relationships or authority between the aggressor and his victim. The article resumes current dates concerning the sexual offences committed by adults, comparing them with the little knowledge about the youthful sexual offenders (similarities and differences). We conclude with suggestions for possible strategies of evaluation and treatment.
