What punishment should paedophiles get?

Question

bolverk · Accepted Answer

They should be removed from Society permanently.

Paedophiles of both sexes are some of the most accomplished liars on the planet, so go grab a drink of choice and get comfortable, because this will be a long response.

Paedophiles come from all walks of life and from all socio-economic groups. They can be male or female, rich or poor, employed or unemployed, religious or non-religious, highly educated or non-educated, or from any race. It usually is those that hide behind the cloak of normality and respectability within our community that are the worst offenders of them all. As they will thrive on this respect and the control over their victim, in knowing that he/she can convince many other's that the child is lying and is looking for attention.

The US Department of Justice has developed characteristics and behavioural indicators of a paedophile. They are as follows:

1) Is most often an adult male but not always.

2) Is usually married, but not always.

3) Works in a wide range of occupations, from unskilled labourer to corporate executive, to within the Judiciary, Law Enforcement, Medical Community, Religious Orders.

4) Relates better to children than adults, and likes to always be around children, pretending to love and care for them, whilst planning their own sick alternative agenda

5) Socializes with few adults unless they are paedophiles. He/She will be a very private person so as to ensure that their sick interest in children is not revealed.

6) Usually prefers children in a specific age group. He/She will have a specific type of child that they target. Like all other abusers in life, they have their own criteria for a victim

7) Usually prefers either males or females, but may be bi-sexual. He/She may abuse a specific gender or sometimes they have no preference as they just enjoy the control of abuse of a child, irrespective of gender.

8) May seek employment or volunteer with programs involving children of the age of his preference. How many times have we seen Teachers, Coaches etc who were employed to work with our children, to turn out to be the most dangerous people to have around our children. No group of our community or person can ever be ignored as a possible Paedophile if their are signs showing.

9) Pursues children for sexual purposes. He/She wants to ensure that they get their sexual gratification from Abusing a Child or a little baby. To these Paedophiles sexual relations with a child or baby is normal and they thrive on the control over the child/baby, which makes their sick sexual experience in their mind even better.

10) Frequently photographs or collects photographs of his victims, either dressed, nude, or in sexually explicit acts. He/She always wants to have lots of images of children around so that at any stage he/she can relieve themselves sexually, or plan on what they will do in abusing this child

11) Collects child erotica and child-adult pornography. Again to these people this is normal and they sadly learn how not to get caught and how to inflict as much pain as possible onto their victim from other paedophiles. They have their own language.

12) May possess and furnish narcotics to his victims to lower their inhibitions. Sometimes a child can fight too much against their abuser, so they are drugged in order to subdue them.

13) Is usually intelligent enough to recognize that he has a personal problem and understand the severity of it. Paedophiles know that society in general has no tolerance for them, that they are hated and if incarcerated their life will be hell. But they are intelligent and manipulate situations so their detection can take a long time to be revealed.

14) May go to great lengths to conceal his illegal activity. Staying hidden from the world, is all part of this sick game of control and abuse to a Paedophile. He/She will do anything that they have to in order to retain this control for as long as possible.

15) Often rationalizes his/her illicit activities, emphasizing his positive impact upon the victim and repressing feelings about the harm that he has done.

16) Often portrays the child as the aggressor. This usually occurs after the child realizes that by withholding "sexual favours" the child will obtain what he or she desires, such as new toys, clothing or trips. They brain train their victims

17) Talks about children in the same manner as one would talk about an adult lover or spouse. As to them this is their lover or spouse. In some cases the girl will have to live life as the partner of the abuser in every way as an adult would.

18) Often was a child molestation victim and frequently seeks out children at the age or stage of physical development at which he was molested. So many will try to explain their abuse of a child as it been all that they knew, as it was done to them. This is total Bull, as they knew the pain it caused, so they know the pain they are inflicting. They are using this to try to justify their abuse to other's and to get a shorter sentence in court.

19) Often seeks out publications and organizations that support his sexual beliefs and practices. They have their own Community online. Whether it is on Facebook or Twitter or Google or even on LinkedIn, they are within every community where they might have access to children.

20) Usually corresponds with other paedophiles and exchanges child pornography and erotica as proof of involvement. This is a secret club that only those within it are aware of. They have their own language, signs and it is through this that they can hide behind the radar for a long time. As they all watch each other's backs.

21) Is usually non-violent and has few problems with the law (paedophiles are frequently respected community members). As I said above the worst offenders of Child Abuse are those that hide behind the cloak of respectability and normality in life.

22) The widespread misconception that child molestation consists solely of children being seized from the street and forcibly molested couldn't be further from the truth. Although these incidents do occur, the vast majority of child molesters are adults who seduce children through subtle intimidation and persuasion and are known to the child. The most dangerous place for 97% of children who are abused in life, is within their own HOME.

The incestuous or inter-familial molester is usually an adult male (father, stepfather, grandfather or live-in boyfriend of the mother, sister or aunt) who molests the child or children. Although physical abuse may occur, the molestation is usually secretive and is accomplished through mental duress and threats - that the child would be removed from the family if he/she did not succumb to his wishes, that he/she would be blamed for hurting the family if the offender is arrested, or that a sibling would be sexually abused if the victim did not consent. The molestation occurs over an extended period of time, occasionally into the victim's adulthood. Through intimidation, the child is made to feel responsible for the molestation and for keeping the acts secret. This secret is normally kept between the offender and the victim, or within the immediate family.

The stranger molester will use force or fear to molest children. As the term implies, the child does not know the molester. This type of molestation is usually reported promptly to the police because the trauma to the child is readily apparent. This abuse is far less common than the normal family involved abuse of a child. As it is so much easier to hide it from behind closed doors, than to risk taking a unknown child. The possibility of exposure doing this is far too high, hence why most children taken under these circumstances are sadly murdered.

The single-parent family is particularly vulnerable to the paedophile; the parent usually has a full-time job and is attempting to fulfil the role of both parents, as well as run the household. In many cases the parent is unable to provide the psychological support the child needs. These situations may contribute to the success of the child molester who can and will provide the caring attention, however superficial that may be lacking at home. Of course, domestic problems in intact families also can make children vulnerable to the paedophile. It should be noted as well, many paedophiles seek out mothers of single-parent families for the purpose of victimizing their children.

The most effective means of protecting your child is communication with your child. They have to feel comfortable discussing sensitive matters with you. If they don't feel they can talk with you about their true feelings or that they will be "put down" for it, then you can't expect they will tell you when they are put in an uncomfortable situation by a child molester. Don't have your child afraid to speak to you about their bodies. Teach them that it is alright to tell if they are scared or hurt, and that no matter what, they will be believed.

Paedophilia is an attraction to prepubescent children. We don't punish people for attraction. I think you meant to ask "What punishment should people receive for sexually abusing children?"

Simslover92 · Accepted Answer

They should get the death penalty. Messing with children is the sickest thing in this world. They don't need to be walking the earth like it's okay to be a despicable human being. Maybe that would make the cases go down tremendously if every one of them would get the death penalty.

Genie23 · Accepted Answer

If they get released they'd commit the crime again as they're attracted to only kids which is really sick and disturbing. So, I believe in order to keep children safe, these criminals should either be in prison until they die or given a death sentence.
