Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pedophilic disorder involves sexual attraction to prepubescent children, typically 13 years old or younger. While not all cases of female teachers having sex with their students meet the criteria for pedophilic disorder, especially if the students are post-pubescent, such cases still constitute sexual misconduct and abuse of power. The term "pedophilic disorder" is specifically defined and does not apply to all cases of sexual misconduct with minors, but any sexual activity between teachers and underage students is illegal and unethical.
