I understand Pachy that you don't like the idea of punishment and TBH I rarely have to "punish" my girls. When I did, it was through positive parenting - for example taking away TV or video games or not playing outside for 1 day etc. True I don't see the value of punishing children harshly. Maybe you were punished as a child and I'm sorry for that - but....we're dealing with adults here. Are you saying a murderer shouldn't be sent to prison? I would love it, if prisoners would get rehabilitated so they could be better human beings.

What should we do with criminals if we don't send to prison??? If there's no known effective treatment for pedophilia - what should society do with a habitual pedophile?? I've thought as a parent what I would do - I'm not a violent person but I would pity anyone if they touched my child. If you were a parent you would understand what its like to feel protective. I don't know if you fully understand child sexual assault - this isn't something that should be taken lightly....it changes that victim, sometimes forever. How is society supposed to deal with a person who violates a child and steals their innocence?? As a society we need some kind of order - an adult knows the difference between right and wrong - if we veer off that path, what should be done. We just can't have a society where criminals can run free and wild.

I believe Sandusky has a huge ego and felt entitled. He was THE MAN for decades. His wife basically tolerated him and didn't question why her husband would have sleepovers. When she dies God will ask her why she didn't question her husband. I also blame the others adults - I don't care if God himself came down and offered my kids a sleepover - they wouldn't go.
