	Description:		It’s scary to learn, but sexual attraction to children is a lot more common than most people realise. Not everyone with that problem will meet with the clinical definition for paedophilia, but the attraction is there nevertheless. So what separates a would-be abuser from an abuser? Today’s episode is part one of a two part special where we speak to three men who say they’ve never offended but struggle with the attraction they feel towards children. We also ask an expert about exactly how common attraction to children is, and what it is that makes people more likely to act on it.
