and obviously it is a disorder that many don’t act on… so in itself is open to therapies …but when it is acted on in the sexual abuse/rape of a child then it becomes a criminal offence also so that’s when it starts to get more blurred …I agree with Niamh, it’s a choice to act on something and in doing that it changes everything really, doesn’t it…and as a society we do find any harm/abuse/any act of violence etc some of the most abhorrent because it preys on the very most vulnerable and helpless…and that tends to be the prime thing/view more than anything else in society because it’s difficult for the human being to see ‘victim’ in someone who has committed a heinous act against a child …they’ve then crossed over into predator, rather than victim of something awful in their lives as well… |
Very interesting read.
The article raises what I raise about 'demonisation'.
Also, some have the strength to seek help, some don't. It's very easy to say they just shouldn't do it.
The article also highlights the lack of help staying the NHS are rarely going to treat it unless they have offended - which in itself is shocking
