I am by no means an authority on weither or not these pedophiles can be reformed. I will state some things I have heard on tv, like the investigative shows, and other court tv type shows, real life cases.
They say that many if not most pedophiles will always have that tendency once they attack their first victim. It is a need they have to meet , even when they know how wrong it is. They did a show about ones that were doing prison time for this and a few of the guys wanted to be castrated because they really didnt want to feel that sexual implusive. They were crying about it, and knew when they got out they would probably do it again. Of course being locked up they could have been saying anything for the camera, after all these are masters of deception.
I don't think someone who does this , can re really reformed. Maybe they stop it for awhile. But what will get them to act on it again? The right circumstances, being alone with a child again, looking at child porn, seems like anything could trigger them to prey on the innocent again.
Personally I think they should be put to sleep like the animals they are. If it happened to one of my kids , I know what I would do. There would be no need for court justice. I would be sitting in jail for murder. I just know what I would do.
Damn this makes me so sick,,,,,,,, I just can't express enough how strongly I feel about child molestors.......to take the trust and innocence of child away, to hurt them in everyway possible is beyond forgiveness.
