One of many issues in this unit is child abuse. We say we want to protect our children; however, we continue to fail them at times. Reflect on the readings and the effects of child abuse. Recall news stories that have reported abuse within your own community. Write a reflection paper that addresses the following questions.

· What are your thoughts on whether you could ever cure a pedophile?

· Does this mean that we should lock the child molesters and pedophiles up forever?

· Should convicted child molesters and pedophiles be required to inform all social partners of their crimes?

· What kind of lasting effects do you think this victimization would have on the child?

· In your opinion, how can victim impact statements affect the offender’s sentencing?
