One point of correction, John Fitzgerald, if I may. Using the term "paedophiles" is incorrect here.  Pedophiles are sexually attracted to children under the age of 10 or so, not with minor children of just any age.  The good  majority of children sexually abused by any offender are teens.  So, use of the term "child molester" is a bit better, but "sex offender" is even better.
