The purpose of this essay is to analyse the descriptions of young girls' experiences of internet contacts, which have led up to sexual abuse. The aim is to give additional understanding and knowledge concerning grooming.       Grooming means that somebody gets in contact with someone else with the intention of committing sexual violations at a later stage. In most cases this concerns adults who contact children. We have chosen to confine ourselves to focusing on the grooming on internet that has happened to girls. By means of thematic analyses of texts from the books Jag kände mig speciell, grooming på internet, 2012 and Alexandramannen, vår tids största nätsexhärva, 2009, we have found certain themes and linked them up with previous research-work and also theory of social psychology.

The ambition to involve younger people in future planning processes in order to get full participation of all groups in the society requires a deep and well-planned dialogue. Although, participation not always means inclusion. The purpose of this study was to analyze how the younger generation in the society is included in the future work. This is based on a case study of the developmental work in the municipality of Skellefteå.Questions that were answered were how the municipality has made the participation possible? To what extent has the younger generation been involved? How did this group experience their participation? The methodology consisted of mixed methods that include observations, surveys to the session leaders and to the participants in the dialogue and three interviews with two participants and one municipal civil servant.The result showed that the open information didn´t reach the younger generation to the open dialogues although the dialogue design gave good conditions for participation.

Marknaden för barn är lukrativ och omsätter årligen mycket pengar. Barn ses som tre marknader i en; de spenderar sina pengar på den existerande marknaden, påverkar föräldrarnas köpvanor och kan genom sina erfarenheter bli trogna ett märke i framtiden. Därför är det viktigt för företag att göra reklam för sina produkter och tjänster och teknikerna för att fånga uppmärksamhet är många, till exempel produktplaceringar. Reklam finns idag på många platser i vårt samhälle och barn utsätts dagligen för den. Syftet med detta examensarbete var att genom en litteraturstudie undersöka hur mycket av reklamens säljande budskap barn förstår och frågeställningen som knöts till syftet var: I vilket kognitivt och socialt stadium förstår barn reklamens säljande syfte? På grund av variationer i de valda vetenskapliga artiklarnas resultat var det svårt att göra några generaliseringar och studien gav inget entydigt svar på i vilket kognitivt och socialt stadium barn förstår reklamens säljande syfte..
