@wirestyle22 well sure. . .
But I would also assume they have laws to protect the community and punish people that do such things. Thus the child doesn't need to take care of their pedobear parents.
It's a tough thing to prove. And what about parent abandonment, a major issue in a lot of countries. BBC ran a headline article about the problems with the abandoned children of priests just yesterday.
You are right it goes both ways. What this really proves is that there will always be assholes in the world. Abandoning a child just breaks my heart. So does the abandonment of parents. My wife works in a nursing home. She and the other staff always make sure every resident gets a Christmas present. Some of them get no visitors during the holidays or any other time.

Of course, maybe abandoning kids is also illegal in countries where kids can't abandon parents. But if not, it's double punishment for the kids. Literally forcing them to be "slaves" to the parents that left them. Talk about a horrible punishment for being an unwanted child. Being hated by the parents that are supposed to love you is bad enough, but to then be forced to care for them is an insanely awful, abusive thing to do to anyone.
