Your question intrigues me. Every study that I've ever read says that child molesters cannot be rehabilitated (there was one "iffy" one about rapists). Frankly, I'd rather see a dead child molester than having the victim turn into the predator etc etc. It sounds so cold blooded - but what could be more cold blooded than destroying the psyche of a child?
