Pedophilia

[EgoDeath]

Even those who have those desires and badly want to not feel them and go out of their way to avoid offending? I'm not saying I think the Jared Fogels of the world are likely to benefit, but there's still a tantalysing chance we might be able to find the next Jared and fix him before he can offend.

Yes, even them. It's a disease the world should be rid of. If we could do it through genetic engineering, even better. That is, if such a thing is even hereditary, though I have to imagine that some aspect of it is.

And this doesn't solve the problem for the victims. Ask yourself what would you do to minimize the number of victims, not how would you punish the purpatrators, the latter is easy.

There is no "solving the problem" for victims. Hopefully, after years of processing what they went through and extensive psycho-therapy, they can learn to deal with their trauma in a way that allows them to live happy, productive lives.

As far as reducing the number of victims; educating parents and children alike on spotting these people and their behaviors is a start. Also, if we began killing them off, they can't hurt any more children, can they? Kind of hard to be a pedophile when you're dead. Hard to be anything when you're dead, actually.

This makes me thing of an episode in the good doctor. It was about a pedophile that came in to the hospital to get help( be castrated) and the doctor refused soo he killed himself in the end.

Sounds like he did the world a favor. Bravo!
