Complex problem and solution

Todays society suffers from a vast amount of problems, in my opinion one of the most serious ones is pedophilia. This problem has multiple solutions that aren´t put into practice nearly as much as they should be.

The first solution that comes to mind is to reform the justice system and make the punishments more severe. At the moment downloading a normal film illegally from the internet is considered a worse crime than downloading pedophilic material, and this is something I can´t consider logical.

Another solution that comes to mind is to treat the criminals mentally throughout their prison time, and to carry on this treatment once they´ve been released. Pedophilia is a recognized psychiatric disorder, so it should be focused as one, like many other mental disorders such as schizophrenia.

The first solution I considered is perhaps the weakest of the two, because it only separates the individual from society for a limited amount of time. Once that time is up they´re released into normal everyday life again.  The second is a long term solution that could actually help to end the issue.

I think that the best solution is the mental treatment by far, because it offers an actual solution to these individuals problems. But for the best results I think that both solutions should be combined.
