Discussion: I am a senior clergyman who commands celibacy. I am sexually attracted to young children who work with me. I'm wondering what to do.

The appeal indicates a restless conscience, not to mention that pedophilia violates the law and is a terrible injury to young and innocent children. I guess at stake are career, reputation, status, and, on the other hand, conscience. (Especially when it comes to a God-fearing man) The answer to what to do is in your conscience; you will know what is suitable if you search carefully. Moving away to a remote community with no temptations is advisable in the first stage, although this may be a temporary solution.
