Over the past two decades, concern about adolescent sex offenders has grown at an astonishing pace, garnering heated coverage in the media and providing fodder for television shows like Law & Order. Americans’ reaction to such stories has prompted the unquestioned application to adolescents of harsh legal and clinical intervention strategies designed for serious adult offenders, with little attention being paid to the psychological maturity of the offender. Many strategies being used today to deal with juvenile sex offenders—and even to define what criteria to use in defining "juvenile sex offender"—do not have empirical support and, Frank C. DiCataldo cautions, may be doing more harm to children and society than good. The Perversion of Youth critiques the current system and its methods for treating and categorizing juveniles, and calls for a major reevaluation of how these cases should be managed in the future. Through an analysis of the history of the problem and an empirical review of the literature, including specific cases and their outcomes, DiCataldo demonstrates that current practices are based more on our collective fears and moral passions than on any supportive science or sound policy.

Youth Fantasies is a collection of studies conducted in cross-cultural collaboration over the past ten years that theorizes 'youth fantasy'; as manifested through the media of TV, film, and computer games. Unlike other media studies and education books, the authors employ both Lacanian and Kleinian psychoanalytic concepts to attempt to make sense of teen culture and the influence of mass media. The collection includes case studies of X-Files fans, the influence of computer games and the 'Lara Croft' phenomenon, and the reception of Western television by Tanzanian youth. The authors see this book as a much needed reconciliation between cultural studies and Lacanian psychoanalysis, and attempt to highlight why Lacan is important to note when exploring youth fantasy and interest in the media, especially in shows like X-Files .

REAL ANSWERS TO SOCIETY'S CHILD MOLESTATION DILEMMA HOPE AT LAST! Society is terrified by what appears to be an out-of-control epidemic of child molestation with little or no resolution in sight. The Perverse Plague invites you to delve beyond the overly simplistic, stereotypical, and politically correct dialogue of our day regarding sexual offenders to discover the whole truth behind the molestation of children and to do so through the framework of a Christian worldview that also incorporates established, well-documented psychological truths. Whether you are a church leader, clinician, or layperson; a victim of molestation, a concerned citizen, or a perpetrator, this book will inform, challenge, and satisfy as no other. Praise for The Perverse Plague Both secular and Christian communities have been deceived into believing there is no escape from an addiction to child sexual abuse. I believe this deception needs to be confronted by those who have proven that with God's help healing is possible, even from something the world has declared hopeless. I commend the authors for challenging the prevailing opinion of our day, proclaiming the possibility of victory with God's help. To that end, I recommend both The Perverse Plague and the approach therein. -Dr. Charles H. Kraft Author of Deep Wounds, Deep Healing; Defeating Dark Angels; I Give You Authority The church was intended to be a redeeming community where broken people find healing and freedom from their past. The Perverse Plague is a story of such redemption. Can there be life after sexual failure and abuse? The emphatic answer is "Yes!" We see it all the time in our ministry. This is a powerful story of failure, progress, and then failure again, but finally freedom and wholeness. -Dr. Neil T. Anderson Founder and President Emeritus of Freedom in Christ Ministries Author of The Bondage Breaker; A Way of Escape
