Socrates was tried for corrupting the youth.
In The Apology of Socrates, Socrates defends himself against the charges of "corrupting the young, and by not believing in the gods in whom the city believes, but in other daimonia that are novel" (24b).
In the great 19th century obscenity trials (Bovary trial, Baudelaire trial, Vizetelly trial), youth was central.
