>>191442 sorry, I didn't mean teenagers won't understand art. Of course, some will. But there must be at least 1 of the photographed that feel like they were tricked or exploited, at a certain time in their life (maybe when they turn 16 or 17 when they understand the legalities of child sex and child pornography, but not so much the artistic ideas of the photos they were in.)
Sturges: I've had a number of American adolescents who, when they hit high school, said, "I really don't want to see these pictures published right now," and they were immediately pulled. I took them out of the galleries. They completely ceased to exist as far as the public perception of the images went. But when the kids were finished with high school they said, "Don't worry about that; I just went through a stage, and it's fine now."
I didn't really mean it as a question to be answered directly, but more of an issue that belongs in this discussion. There's the photographer, there's the accusers, there's the law, and there's also the children who were photographed.
