Triggering (Abuse): Nude Photos

[FONT=""][COLOR=""][SIZE=""]As I get older and more of a body I’m starting to realize how weird this is. But I’m a girl who’s 14. I’ve had nude pictures of me taken every year on my birthday since the day I was born. This been done for other females from my dads side of the family for many years and my aunt still does it. She says it makes her feel feminine and likes looking back at the changes her body been through. Pictures are starting to feel more sexual and maybe that’s just my age but it’s also a strange tradition but I don’t want to be one to end it. Or what if I regret it. Idk what to think anymore. Maybe it’s cause I’m not that mature physically yet and I’m feeling childish. Just any thoughts on this or how to take the pictures. Tastefully. Sexy. Should I try to hide my girly bits. Idk I’m really over thinking this year.[/size][/color][/font]

Hey,

This is concerning to me, especially because you said that the pictures are starting to feel more sexual. Having nude photos of a minor can be considered child pornography and your aunt or other family members can get into serious trouble for taking photos like this or having them in their possession. I'd tell your aunt straight out that you don't feel comfortable taking photos in the nude anymore because it is uncomfortable and illegal. If you don't want to tell her yourself you can have a parent tell your aunt that you no longer want these photos taken. A 14 year old shouldn't be taking sexy pictures, especially for another adult.

I'd insist on being fully clothed if your photo is being taken going forward. That way there's no legal risk going forward and you don't have to feel weird, childish, or uncomfortable. You have the right to say no, so if anything you do is ever uncomfortable you don't have to force yourself to do it to please other people. I strongly encourage either you or a parent to talk to your aunt about this and put an end to this tradition. If things continue (or even now) you can report it to the police.

Hello there.
I am concerned about how young you are and the fact that the photos are now becoming more sexual. I agree with Ennui. in saying that it is illegal to have photos of this kind due to being a minor. Your family can get into serious trouble.
I would suggest speaking to your family about how you are feeling and what your thoughts are in this situation.
