Sourcing Media Articles

Since Kids Free 2B Kids started raising awareness about the sexualisation of children in February 2007, the issue has been frequently highlighted in the media and there is now a wide range of material on the topic readily available on the internet. As we do not have the resources to collate this material for you, the best way to source media stories is to google key words and phrases such as:

Sexualisation of Children in the Media
Kids Free 2B Kids.
Julie Gale.
Teens and Sexualised Culture.
Senate Inquiry into Sexualisation of Children
Depression/Self Harm/Anxiety and the Sexualisation of Children.
