Paedo's - Should we have their addresses?

totally its fucked up like, and we have people like darude shagging animals, the world is a very fucked up place.

Its a hard situation...there one was in my middle school who kept taking photos of girls and texting some of them when were 12 so he ended up getting sacked for it but nothing else came of it. He used to send me about ten texts a day and would top my phone up if I didnt reply...he also took photos of me and my friends in music. He text me asking me to meet him at 9 at night in a deserted park (when it was winter and got very dark) I was actually going to go. Text said "come and meet me at sooter park at 9 ive got a suprise for you" Katies mum overheard this and obviously rang and told my mum who took my phone and went straight into the school where he was sacked but I don't think they wanted the police to be involved. Looking back now this man could do anything to any1 and no1 would know... I think cases like this should be publicised. I duno if it would have gone on his record that he was sacked because of this? He was training to be a teacher..

very emotive subject.. and it is surprising how many people have first hand experiences of paedophilic behaviour like jess above.

i remember reading about a lad i used to go to school with, total loner type character, turned out he had a thing for small babies and was caught in wet'n'wild filiming children on a video camera. then they raided his house and found 1000's of pictures on his computer. i believe he was sentenced to something like 2 years.

general consensus amongst most psychologists is that paedophilic behaviour is almost untreatable. for that reason i think, whatever the cost may be, that paedophiles should be held indefinitely under the mental health act.

i'd don't really have a preference tbh, they are just as bad as each other.

i totally agree

The scariest thing is really...until you are about 13/14 you don't start to realise peoples main intentions...you just think they want to be your friend etc and you hear all the time how they con children with no idea into thinking its a good idea and its not wrong type of thing

the answer is surely more education for children. however, do we really want to be talking to 8 and 9 year olds about paedophiles..? what happens to the innocence of childhood. it is obviously a very delicate subject, and i for one certainly wouldn't know how to approach it.

me and scruf had a lecturer at university who was convicted of sex offences including flashing kids at a school... thing is he is now back lecturing at uni...

I just think its a subject kids don't fully understand. My mum has never ever let me walk anywhere on my own..at 17 years old my friend used to live half way down my street and my mum INSISTED I would have to meet her half way...Ive also always been told not to except things off weird men and stuff like you know the ones that offer kids sweets to get into a car but in a situation such as schools, doctors (I read a story about) etc where you are brought up to trust a person people don't ever suspect something

most are in newcastle too, I think there is only 2 in my area

yeah under data protection laws, if you write to them and ask to have it removed they have to comply.

mine school was called high school

just asked my mum about the teacher I was talking bout and she said apparently he didn't even get banned just stopped him teaching there and apparently they tried to blame her because I had a mobile so long. Are they allowed to do that?

no i was an utter cock at school, i bullied everyone, tormented the teachers burnt the school mobile down
