These new offenses have disrupted traditional understandings of child sexual abuse-sexual activity with a child that is nonconsensual because of it being coerced, being unwanted, or involving an impermissible age difference. Many variations of these abuse dynamics have been identified by educators, 1 physicians, 2, 3 police, 4 and parents and have been labeled with names such as online sexual abuse, 5 online sexual solicitation, 6 online grooming, 7 image-based sexual abuse, 8 child sexual abuse image production, 9 sextortion, 10, 11 and nonconsensual sexting. Dating partners and peers use digital devices to take and misuse sexual images of their friends. Adults use social media to target children for illegal sexual activities. Technology has created new modalities for the sexual abuse and exploitation of children.
