What is pedophilia?
#Mohsen_Alwan_Saz
Pedophilia is a mental disorder characterized by the fantasy or actual act of engaging in sexual activity with children. Pedophiles either prefer sexual activity with children, or find sexual excitement and pleasure exclusively from sexual activity with children of the same sex or children of the other sex.
The sexual behaviors involved in pedophilia include a wide range of possible activities, but they usually avoid the use of force in order to continue their activities because if there is an obstacle in their way, it will end with violence and killing the child. Some pedophiles limit their behavior to exposing themselves or masturbating in front of the child, or fondling or stripping the child, but without sexual contact, while others force the child to engage in sexual intercourse and genital intercourse.
. A pedophile can be young or old, male or female, although the vast majority are male. Unfortunately, some of them work in a profession where they are responsible for training or maintaining the health and well-being of children and young people, while others have a family or even genetic relationship with their child victims.
Many experts believe that pedophilia is caused by psychological factors and not by biological characteristics. Some of them think that pedophile is the result of being sexually abused as a child, although not all pedophiles were themselves sexually abused as children. Some other experts think that pedophilia is derived from an inappropriate and pathological interaction with one’s parents during the early years of life.
Because the victims of pedophiles are children, pedophiles often offer their services to sports teams, schools, or religious or civic organizations that deal with children. In some cases, pedophiles who are attracted to children in their family may offer their help to relatives as babysitters. Unfortunately, they often have good interpersonal skills with children and can easily gain children’s trust.
Pedophiles usually realize their problem during puberty and start their activity in middle age. In the United States, about 50 percent of men arrested for pedophilia are either fathers themselves or at least married.

Pedophiles are familiar. Never leave your child alone with someone older than him (even grandfather, uncle and uncle).
Pedophiles are often married and have children, so don’t trust anyone who is a parent.

Most pedophiles have low IQ.
The government should provide facilities to test the sexuality of all adults who deal with children.

Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the parents to protect the child from pedophiles, so do not be complacent and leave your child alone with any acquaintance who is older than him in the hope that he will report sexual abuse.
