We are not outlawing sex; we are merely asking our children, for their own good, to wait until they are 18. Why not just have laws that protect children and allow us to remove predators and other bad people from society? On Thursday, the country was awash with debate after the Daily Nation informed readers in advance about a report they were preparing on the proposal to allow sex with younger children. This presumes, of course, that those who are having sex with children are other children, which is not true. The danger is that we might rewrite the law, disadvantage the children, put their lives and health at risk and benefit paedophiles by allowing them legal access to our children.
