I would recommend watching "Louis Theroux - Among the sex offenders" to get a better understanding of the lack of treatment available for people who don't want to offend but feel compelled. Some of them are crying out for treatment!
Yup. Let's not forget that pedophilia is a mental disorder. I'd assume that many people with pedophilia don't become offenders, but I think that the number of offenders could be much lower still if these people got proper help and treatment before they ever commit a crime.
Sure, if these people actually commit crimes or if they're about to, we have to make sure they're physically unable to get anywhere near children. But I feel like in most circles if someone were to come out and admit they have this mental disorder, they'll be frowned upon, probably lose all their "friends" and not get any help. On the internet, it's far worse than this.
