Abstract
In this paper, I discuss the serious ethical issues that arise from the advent of childlike sexbots (CSB). The main question I will be addressing is: Is it morally and legally acceptable to create CSBs for therapeutic purposes to treat paedophilia?
Proponents of love and sex with robots would argue that a CSB could have a twofold interest: protecting children from sexual predators and by the same token, treating the latter. On the other hand, opponents to sexbots would contend that a CSB is not an effective therapeutic tool in treating paedophilia. It could even contribute to legitimizing or normalizing, in the eyes of the offender, the fundamental social, moral and legal transgression of having sex with under age children.
However, as a pragmatic observer of society, I believe that CSBs are inevitable due to the recent development of sexbot technology, but also because of existing demand. Thus, I think that a general ethical framework is necessary and should be drawn up, in order to help healthcare providers, lawmakers and judicial systems deal effectively with this technology.
Based on the loosely interpreted tenets of the harm principle, I argue that CSBs could be authorized under strict medical supervision and in accordance with guidelines issued by an ethics committee.
Moreover, I devote an entire section of this paper to exploring the social and moral attitudes towards paedophilia in very recent history. I shed particular light on the strange case of the defence of paedophilia, by several prominent French intellectuals in the 1970’s. How did this type of moral relativism supersede for a time a moral absolute?

The Dutroux case broke out in Belgium in the summer of 1996. Marc Dutroux, a repeat offender, was accused of raping and murdering at least four young girls: Julie Lejeune (8 and a half years old), Mélissa Russo (19), An Marchal (17) and Eefje Lambrecks (19). A “white march” was organized and gathered more than 300,000 people in the streets of Brussels, in protest against the incompetence and profound dysfunctions of various Belgian state authorities (police, mounted police, the judicial power and, politicians).
I use interchangebly the words “moral” and “ethics”, which are close etymologically and conceptually. “Ethics” originates from “ethos” in ancient Greek and “moral” comes from the word “mores” in Latin. They both refer to “morality”.

The doll is thus upgraded with A.I., and would be able to answer certain questions, interact in a very elementary way with its human interlocutor, move its head and blink its eyes.
Because of lack of space, I intentionally decided not to discuss the specific case of incest in this article. This issue would require a separate study. Nevertheless, according to Dr. Vantournhout, not all incestuous parents are necessarily paedophiles and vice-versa.
