Should pedophilia be crime?
But what about instances where the pedophile seeks help and doesn't act on their desires?
Regardless of whether or not the pedophile acts on their desires, the sexual attraction towards children is cause for concern, as it can harm the child and result in criminal action. Seeking help is definitely a step in the right direction, but it does not change the fact that the attraction itself is harmful and warrants attention.
