   I'm not suggesting I know what's best but I'd wonder if a mental   
   hospital is the best place for someone who, in theory, can't be   
   cured since it's part of who they are. This started off with talk   
   of dangerous sexual preferrences so.. Trying to 'cure' a Pedohpile   
   is a bit like trying to 'cure' someone of being Gay. They are what   
   they are and maybe can fake they are now the way you want them to   
   be (to get out) but you haven't really changed them.   
      
   Um.. that wasn't intended as a shot against Gay people..   
   I just used that because there's a history there of some trying   
   to 'cure'a person of being Gay..
