Mental condition.
As I understand it children register as sexually attractive, adults as sexually repulsive - the exact opposite from the way normal people's brains are fixed. Its almost as simple as a crossed wire, and I don't believe it can be 'fixed' by any amount of treatment.
They also appear attracted to plainly pre-pubescent children, even babies, there is no grey area of teens which could be used as an excuse.
They seem to believe fervently they are normal and the rest of the world is wrong, exactly as normal people believe about them.
There is a common element of sadism and revenge - my childhood was f$cked, I'm going to make damn sure some other kids life is f$cked up for them. These are the truly dangerous ones as they go after as many victims as they can get hold of.
Having said that, both gays and pedos are often highly selfish and very promiscuous without caring about the consequences. Maybe the predatory pedos are just nasty, selfish and highly driven but have no actual excuse.
No real victim I know of has ever expressed an interest in harming a child, but many pedos blame their actions on abuse they have suffered.
Probably its just a warped justifcation with no basis in fact.
If they seem intent on acting on their impulses, take whatever steps required to keep them away from children.
If they act on it, lock them up.
No child's wellbeing can be compromised, the long term effects once adults can also be appalling.
(I do have some experience dealing with paedophiles and the aftermath, although I'm no expert so the above is mostly opinion and observation)
