Summary/Abstract: The phenomenon of sexual abuse committed on the minors has recently met an unpreceded spreading in Romania, mass media presenting these situations frequently. Unfortunately, within the modern society, there are more and more numerous the cases in which the victims of rape are underage, some of them of young ages, the sexual assault committed on them becoming special social problems. While the statistics has continued to maintain a gradually ascendant trend, year by year, the authorities seem available, at least at this moment, to diminish considerably the phenomenon of the sexual abuses committed on minors, among which not only the rape is noticeable, but also the incest.
