The most probable pedophiles in order are:
Fathers
Teachers
Coaches
Protestant ministers
Priests are way down on the list.
So if a father is a teacher of mid-high history, coaches the girls basketball team and is a youth minister at his church on weekends/Sundays watch out! He would be much more prone to pedophilia that any priest.
Teachers and Pedophilia - In YOUR Backyard
Washington Post -- D.C. school officials reported 220 abuse allegations against teachers
Sex Abuse by Teachers Said Worse Than Catholic Church
WHEN BOYS ARE MOLESTED BY TEACHERS AND OTHERS IN POSITIONS OF AUTHORITY
OPS (Omaha Public Schools) didn't report abuse allegations
Well...no matter where they come from, they share remarkable similarities in their personalities and behaviors.
Of course most teachers, parents, coaches,and volunteers are not abusive.
But what about that small group of teachers who want to be “cool”. They want to befriend the students rather than present themselves as an authority figure.
Or the volunteer of “x” outreach group - who just loves sleepovers - what isn’t to like about a sleepover right?
And as we can now compare the thoughts and words of Michael Jackson and Jerry Sandusky...we see personalities that like to see the world as “us vs them” where the “us” group is composed of the child/adult plus the children vs. all the other adults. They will complain the poor kids have not received love and affection from their parents, and so they had to step in and fill that role.
It would be beneficial for everyone to stop trying to point fingers are certain groups - and instead, start teaching the public about certain behaviors.
