This is not a topic which is easy to write about. But maybe someone
has to. Deep breath. Last week there was outrage in a community in
Hamilton after two men with convictions for sexual offending against
children were found to have been living in a boarding house where
children were also living.
And another family with two young girls were apparently told by the Department of Corrections to play on the other side of their house after a paedophile was moved in next door. This horrifies us. Most of the public discourse around sexual offending on young children is hysterical and terrified, with the impression of a lynch mob assembling in the background.
