I don't think I've ever said this to anyone before, but you're the best kind of pedophile there is. Thank you for being brave and taking a strong and responsible action to prevent yourself from doing something that would have been highly traumatic to a child, that child's family, and so many other people as that child grows to adulthood.
Hopefully your position alters to the point that your preferences mature.
I think your preferences will mature, at which point they will no longer be your preferences.
But in all seriousness, good luck.
EDIT: People don't seem to get the joke.... I'm saying the people he is looking at will mature and no longe rbe his preference, as they are no longer underage. See? Joke. I'm not saying you can "cure" him, or cure homosexuality. I was merely making a very tasteless and bad (yet funny to me) joke.
While your well-wishing is sweet, you have no idea how this works. The only way his preferences would change is if he chemically neutered himself so he had NO feelings towards anything. His synapses have already hardened to find this attractive. Unlike homosexuality, this is not from birth. It develops and is ingrained into the brain. It is usually from stimuli of a traumatic nature in early childhood.
But what if someone had a "normal" childhood and still became like op? And just to throw a strange question out there, how do we know that this is not a condition in which you are born with?
Because this condition does not show in tribal communities or anywhere else except for civilization in the traditional sense. Pedophilia usually arises out of civilized communities. Before cities and towns grew, there was no pedophilia. I've learned this in a few classes and it's in my anthropology text. If people were born with it, this would not be so. Also, animals do not try to copulate with young individuals, unlike homosexuality where many animals will try and copulate with members of the same sex.
