No I don't have children.....yet. And yes, I can only imagine the emotions and the rage any parent would have if their child was violated like this. I to would no doubt feel the same way. But that is why decisions and laws are made under rational conditions.
If you murdered that person, there would be three lives destoyed not just 1. If you went to prison you would prevent your son from having the support he needed from his father and you would make matters even worse not to mention you teach your child that revenge is how you solve your problems.
