Secret Life 1/5 (The Story of a Child Sex Offender, Channel 4, 2007)

Charlie is white, middle class and a child sex offender. And though he's served his sentence, by his own admission, he continues to pose a significant danger to children. When the rehabilitation centre he has elected to attend is shut down, he is cast adrift in the local community, without guidance or psychological treatment, to struggle alone with his compulsion to re-offend. Written after the closure of the last rehabilitation centre for child sex offenders in the UK, Secret Life is a difficult and powerful feature-length drama that seeks to explore how children can be safeguarded from convicted child sex offenders. And which questions the lack of effective measures in place to prevent them from re-offending.

@skeletorphd wtf sort of comment was that? Homosexuals should not appear in the same sentence as peados?

[JokinglySerious]

dear god...matthew macfadyen a.k.a Mr Darcy, portraying a peadophile. Not sure I'll get over this LOL

@skeletorphd I know it is - and youtube is the land of misunderstandings. But I have done research, you're not the only one and I always - no matter what problem - try to see beyond the clear cut - my problem is not that I haven't tried to understand what drives someone to do anything like that, my problem was that I for a moment thougt that you were one of those loons that were saying that gay people are also paedophiles.

[skeletorphd]

@Folkmann It's hard to explain. I suggest research. That's how I got my head around why people would abuse a kid.

The attempts at justification can be laughable but you do find that they have attractions the same way a homosexual or heterosexual does. There's also stuff that goes into basic instinct if you're into anthropology.

But you'll find its not as clear cut as the media would have us believe and it would take far too long to explain the research here.
