As I understand it, many paedophiles were themselves the victims of sexual
abuse when young. When they grow up they act the only way they know.
So the victim becomes the "perp", and thus is a victim twice over.
Justice has a difficult job to do. Children need protection, and
incarceration of the abuser may be the only way to provide it. Vengeance
should be left out of the equation altogether.

That is the most cool-headed decision you could have made if I may say
so.
We recently had a very unusual case here in the UK of the violent rape
of a 3 yr old. It made me re-examine my tolerance, and after much
thought, I decided that short of the death penalty (which we mercifully
do not have here) I would support castration as a punishment option.
