What would be the best punishemnt for child sex offenders?
399362
To be put in a special prison where they are subjected to being ass raped w/ a foreign object(minimum 12 inches in length) for at least one hour a day followed up by a general beat down. There is not a punishment severe enough for those assholes nor is there a word in the English language strong enough to describe them!

sex offenders should have their balls cut off.. this law is not nearly enough..\n\ntwisted donut.. \n\nno sex offender is a one time person doing a stupid thing.. i suggest you do some research in that particular sexual varience.. \n\n>>>psychology lesson... pedophelia is a mental disorder.. many people can live with it and not actually commit a crime against a child.. once they do.. they are a threat to society.. it sounds harsh.. but if you have the background on the disorder you cant excuse it.. there is no mental illness that has a "cure" ... but people can live with a disorder and still be productive members of society this is what psychologists refer to in the field as "recovery"\n...\nas for laws not stopping them...\n\nthats why i said cut their balls off..\n\nchs is right about it being a feel good law. (somewhat).. but his background in law obviouslly lacks a foundation in the psychology behind this issue..\n\ni say somewhat.. because he fails to mention the proposed mandatory minimum sentences in these new laws which keep these nuts off the streets..(there are a lot of new laws being proposed on this topic every day..) instead he has seemed to take the route of only addressing how these laws are to be used as a deterrent.

Do you mean pedophiles or all sex offenders? \n\nI know a guy that peed off the side of a boat and another boat passed by and a boy saw him. He has to register. Should he be locked up for life? \n\nMaybe you should do some research and educate yourself before asking such questions. Be more specific... I think you meant to ask if pedophiles and violent rapists should be sentenced to life... is that what you meant?

You could do a report on interventions used to keep juvenile offenders from becoming adult offenders.  There should be much written on that topic.  Programs that have been used over the years include the "Scared Straight" approach and I'm confident that you should have ample material.  Good luck.

There is some monitoring in most states for sex offenders. I have listed a website that is worth looking at. You type in your address and it shows you where the listed sex offenders are. It gives you pictures of the offender and information about the type of crime. You should check it out.\n\nI do agree that something more should be done about this!

I would absolutely go and help the person put the correct information out:\n\nAt least this way, those of you that are hate mongers, believe everything the media and the politicians say, (which is mostly 99% wrong), and those of you that think you have to have a registry to babysit your children rather than you supervising them on your own (you do enjoy that false sense of security the registries give you), you will know where these rehabilitated former offenders are.\n\nNow, if you would rather here the facts instead of the propaganda: 90 to 95% of sexual offenses occur by someone known to the child - a relative, close family friend, close neighbor, teachers, coaches, scout leaders and after school activity persons. The re offense rate, however, is 3.5% reconviction rate for sex offenders. 1.2% of that rate are reoffenses on child molestation.\n\nNow that you have those figures, how about this: Your child has a MUCH higher chance of being harmed by a drug dealer/user, drunk driver, gang related incident, playground accident, drowning, and struck by lightening, than they have of being molested by a rehabilitated sex offender. So you just enjoy that little false sense of security you love so much. While you are enjoying that, pay attention to the registries and see how they are growing compared to second charges on offenders!

Check with your local law enforcement. Sex offenders should be registered. Pedophiles target children, not older adults, but to be sure, contact your police department before jumping to conclusions.

We should teach them to read, provide vocational training, provide violence-prevention training, and drug and alcohol abuse rehabilitation, and therapy for adult victims of child abuse.\n\nThese were recommendations of prison wardens I read while California was passing the Three Strikes law.\n\nThe prison wardens at a conference were asked what they thought should be done to reduce recidivism, and the above list was their reply. That and make it easier for them to keep connection with their families.

Castration does not work. Sex Offenses are about power and control. They are not only about sex. Sex Offenders also have the lowest recidivism rate of any crime, with the exception of murder. \n\nA child has a much higher chance of being harmed by a drug dealer/user, drunk driver, gang related drive by shooting, drowning, playground accident and parental neglect than they do of being harmed by rehabilitated former sex offender. The U.S. Dept. of Justice released a study in 2003 stating these FACTS.\n\nThey should be given therapy and be watched/probation for a few years. The therapy should also include the victim if possible. \n\nI was molested twice as a child. I am NOT a victim. I am a survivor. I work with rehabilitated sex offenders everyday.

Should you what? Be a snitch. you could call the police department and find out what the charge, thats public info. But depending on the seriousness of the charge, Child molester, or something of that nature, turn him in and save a bunch of kids, but don't expect reward cause thats B.S. You'll never get it. Any thing other mind your own or it may come back and bite you in the azz

Many are repeat offenders who got sentenced for a short time and were let out of jail early. Many states are trying to pass Jessica's Law which sets a minimum of 12 years jail time for convicted pedophiles.\n\nIt was not that long ago that a liberal judge had given a pedophile a six month sentence.\n\nPedophiles are sick, and they may be wired in the head wrong and are unable to be rehabilitated. There is no proven method of curing them. They think that they are doing nothing wrong, and that they won't get caught. They are not stupid, they are just obsessed with children to the point that they are sick and twisted. It is unlikely they will quit, no matter if they are confronted with how evil their actions are, because they have an addiction and an obsession that drives them to do those evil things.\n\nThe best thing to do is educate your children not to give out personal info on the Internet, and be careful who they chat with. That they must get their parent's or guardian's permission before meeting someone or going to visit someone. You also need to monitor their Internet useage and see what web sites they have been on and what chat rooms they have been in. Most Internet programs have a history feature to see that info.

I think like that, but I'm also a big fan of "punishment should fit the crime," too. For these child molesters out here who think it's okay to do kids and babies that way, they need to tie them over a fifty gallon drum and shove a fence post up their ass. Repeatedly. then cut their penis off, stuff it in their mouth, and sew their lips shut around it.\n\nI'm mean, ain't I?

We can fund CPS a little better and give them more reign to do their jobs.  We can hold people accountable for their actions when it comes to their kids.  When someone is abusing a child either physically or mentally, that person needs to do about 10 years prison time or more.  We can quit sitting back and letting it happen.  Children deserve so much better in this country than what they are given.  Our focus as a people ought to be on how we can better children's lives and not our own.

Good for you! Thank you for not signing that petition. Yes, there are many rehabilitated former sex offenders. The recidivism rate of sex offenders is the lowest for all crimes, with the exception of murder. A child has a higher chance of being harmed by a drug dealer/user, drunk driver, playground accident, drowning and parental neglect than they do by a rehabilitated former sex offender. \n\nAll parents need to realize that their children are a gift from God. They are to be vigilant in supervising them and teaching them. If you teach your children good touch/bad touch and what to do if a bad touch happens, make them aware of people around them and don't take your eyes off them they will be fine. I have raised three children and I am not raising two grandchildren. I do not utilize the registry. There is no need for me to as they are always under my watchful eye. \n\nGet to know your neighbor. Discuss his offense with him. It may be that it was a Romeo/Juiliet case or any other number of things. \n\nGod forgives all our sins. We need to learn to walk in the light of God. God forgives all sins, including sex offenses.

Children are the only thing that's sacred remaining in this world. People who hurt kids should be punished severely. Yes, that is an excellent idea, in my opinion- to sterilize criminals who have harmed innocent kids (every kid is innocent, because they are defenseless against larger adults). If they are prevented from having any other kids, that would help give at least some degree of assurance that they wouldn't fall into recidivism. But on the other hand, measures might need to be taken to prevent any offender from adopting other children, and measures to prevent an offender from working around kids, too. Prison time would also be a good idea- and sterilization. If the individual ever got out of jail, then they would not have any immediate children to harm.
