 Controversial cases involving sex offenses have sparked public debate concerning the appropriateness of certain [[Wikipedia:sex offender|sex offender]] laws and their applications. These controversies have sometimes involved [[sex offender registries]] [[Wikipedia:sex offender registries|(WP)]], [[Wikipedia:associational restrictions|associational restrictions]] prohibiting those convicted of certain sex offenses from seeing their families or associating with minors, and [[Wikipedia:residency restriction|residency restriction]]s banning them from living near schools. Sometimes they have involved minors who engaged in [[Wikipedia:sexting]] with other minors. Prosecutors typically argue that the restrictions are necessary in order to protect the rights of the public, especially vulnerable children.<ref>{{cite web|last=Lane|first=Hilary|title=Woman engaged to sex offender: registry ruined our life|url=http://www.wktv.com/news/local/Woman-engaged-to-sex-offender-registry-ruined-our-life-143561776.html|publisher=WKTV|accessdate=22 June 2012|date=March 20, 2012}}</ref>
