I disagree. In an unrealistic and perfect world we want to believe that our children are asexual. And, in an unrealistic and perfect world, we want to believe there are no sexual predators. What we wish for and what the reality is are often different. Mr. Curran writes, "when the state trespasses on our righteous ability to raise our children in a manner that we deem appropriate, then the government has become totalitarian in nature." Just what is "righteous ability"? If you believe that your "righteous ability" includes corporal punishment, imprisoning them, or withholding medical care, then the state will "intrude" into your world and challenge your "righteous ability".
