Bargaining powers

That is the real power of a pedophile. Not love. Or that children are magically drawn to them, no bargaining powers. They come to play when they usually already passed the point that they made themselves believe the child was trying to seduce them (but ofcourse normal playful behaviour, is flirting. Or might it just be that the kids don't know the feelings it stirred up in a pedovile and was just .... carelessly playing????).

The "relation" between a pedovile and a child is asymetrical, the adult has much more power then the child has in said relation. Therefor the bargaining power is greater as well, especially when a child has been left in the care of the adult. A teen is partially but limited capable of looking after his or her own interest, a child is even more limited. When you take in that a pedovile's ultimate goal is to have sexual relations with the child, you can sense an immense danger in said situation.

One of the most common used sentences an adult may utter is: "Don't you love me anymore?" which already makes a position where in either the child endures the pain in the name of love, and compares love to pain, and where in she says no and has to hurt feelings. Love becomes the bargain. And either way, love becomes something sick and twisted. Something that may be used for own interest, and lost equally. And children will always want to please everyone and make everyone happy, which make them an easy target. In a way a pedovile likes a child, because they don't want to do the effort to actually earn love, and prefer to bend someone to their will instead.

Which also again is shown in things they say and do to the child. Because a body can react in a sexually positive way, they talk away any physical and emotional negative reactions. Convincing them it doesn't hurt, they want this, they asked for this, etc. It's not just a guilt trip. It messes up the senses, cause kids think we adults know it better then them. So why don't we feel like they say we feel? And within this confusion, with promises of special secrets, silence is born.
