pedophile

Read a random definition: Power of Sale clause

A quick definition of pedophile:

Term: PEDOPHILE

Definition: A pedophile is an adult who is attracted to children in a sexual way. This is not okay and it is against the law. It is important to tell a trusted adult if someone is making you feel uncomfortable or unsafe.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A pedophile is an adult who is sexually attracted to children. They may engage in sexual activities with children or have a strong desire to do so.

Example: John was arrested for having sexual relations with a 10-year-old girl. He was found to be a pedophile and was sentenced to prison.

Explanation: This example illustrates the definition of a pedophile as an adult who engages in sexual activities with children. John's actions show that he has a sexual attraction to children and acted on it, which is illegal and harmful to the child.

Example: Sarah has a strong desire to be around young children and often volunteers at a daycare center. She has never acted on her desires, but her attraction to children is a concern for her mental health.

Explanation: This example shows that not all pedophiles act on their desires, but their attraction to children is still a concern. Sarah's desire to be around young children could potentially put them at risk, and she should seek help to address her attraction to children.

"But I also want to end on this note. Don't be afraid of being wrong. And what I mean by that is, being wrong about a school. I applied to Princeton coming out of high school and didn't get in. I ended up going to Vanderbilt. I could never see myself having gone anywhere but Vanderbilt." -Spivey
