Preferred term

child pornography  

Definition

  • Child pornography, a form of sexual expression often involving the depiction of children engaged in sexually explicit conduct, is not entitled to First Amendment protection. It is similar to obscenity in that it represents a category of sexual expression lacking First Amendment protection, but it covers material that does not meet the legal definition of obscenity. [Source: Encyclopedia of the First Amendment; Child Pornography]
