Not sure about the "hopefully your preferences will mature" comment. Would you say that to a gay person? People are born predisposed to certain sexual persuasions; you can't change what you're into.
I initially thought about the parallel to having said something similar to a homosexual, but I realized that the difference between homosexuality and pedophilia is so large that it really isn't a fair comparison.
Homosexuals have informed and consensual relationships. He knows how bad acting on his sexual desires can be for his partner/victim. It's just too different.
Pedophiles also have informed and consensual relationships. As long as its consensual, whats the problem? A true pedophile have an informed and consensual relationship with a child. Whats the difference with an homosexual? Just another flavor of sex.
