Will you stop going crazy in there?

The problem is mainly there's no political drive for it. Ideally yeah if someone was a pedophile they'd be able to get some form of help but just go ahead and try to advocate for them. It's not like they can indulge in it in an acceptable manner to society and do you really want to be the person who gets stuck holding the bag when whoever you're treating acts on their urges? It'd be like being an abortion provider in the reddest most jesus-y state in the US.

Is there any actual treatment for pedophilia? I imagine that you can't "cure" someone of it any more than you can cure someone of their attraction to a particular sex, so the social stigma that's been created around it is actually pretty troubling.
