thus proving that political correctness is a fucking useless ideology when it comes to upholding the sexual security of children

A Swedish rehabilitation program for convicted pedophiles and other sex offenders that has been used for decades has been criticised for giving the opposite effect to that intended.

Prisoners who have undergone the so-called Ros program (“Ros” stands for “relationship and coexistence”), are at increased risk for a relapse into criminal behaviour when they are released.

The term “prison correctional services” which is used throughout Sweden when locking up criminals, signals that it is more about care and rehabilitation than punishment.

The approach is controversial but defended by the fact that the convict is to be rehabilitated into society, and be readapted and better equipped for a law-abiding life than when he was locked up. The program which has been developed for sex offenders and especially those with a pedophile orientation who have committed child abuse, is voluntary and not all sex offenders choose to participate in it. Now, however, the alarm has been raised that the therapy offered to the prisoners does not reduce the risk of relapse into crime but, on the contrary, increases it.

Among other things, exercises aimed at trying to create empathy for the victim have been shown to increase the risk of relapse among convicted sex offenders. One such exercise is that the criminal is asked to write fake letters to their rape victim. The focus of the program will henceforth be on teaching the prisoners to control their sex drive and, in existing cases, sexual inclination towards children. In this way, it is believed that in the future it will be safer to release these people into society than it has been up to now."
