This is a tricky one. The problem here is somewhat two-fold. 1) Do these people choose to be attracted to children? All current research points to this not being the case, just as the majority of people do not choose to be gay. 2) Do people have a choice whether or not to act on these desires that are against societal norms? All current research points to that, yes, while there is not a choice to be attracted to children, there is still a choice whether or not to act on those desires.

I'm not trying to defend those who engage in these acts, but I do think we need to recognize it is not an easy struggle.
