In the decade of the 70s, much was learned about abused and neglected children and their families. Public outcry demanded action at the state, regional and national level hoping that the effort would generate more effective methods of identification, intervention and treatment. Consequently, researchers and theoreticians initiated efforts that were aimed at providing a better understanding of why some parents abuse or neglect their children while others do not. In spite of all the energy and time, one form of child abuse continues to flourish relatively unnoticed--child pornography, or as it is more commonly known in the trade, "kiddie" or "chicken" porn. Because of the dearth of information about the subject, this paper addresses five key issues: Who are the children who become the young stars of pornographic films? How many children are estimated to be involved in this activity? What are the presumed effects of such involvement on children? Legal issues related to the control of the pornographic industry; and What is the challenge to social work and other helping professionals?
在20世纪70年代的十年间，人们对受虐待和被忽视的儿童及其家庭有了很多了解。公众强烈抗议，要求在州、地区和国家层面采取行动，希望这些努力能产生更有效的识别、干预和治疗方法。因此，研究人员和理论家开始努力，旨在更好地理解为什么有些父母虐待或忽视孩子，而另一些父母却不会。尽管投入了所有的精力和时间，但有一种形式的虐待儿童现象仍在相对不被注意的情况下盛行——儿童色情制品，或者如业内更常见的说法，“儿童”或“雏妓”色情制品。由于关于这个主题的信息匮乏，本文探讨了五个关键问题：成为色情电影小明星的儿童都是哪些人？估计有多少儿童参与了这种活动？这种参与对儿童有哪些假定的影响？与控制色情行业相关的法律问题；以及社会工作和其他帮助专业人员面临的挑战是什么？
