Innocence for one thing. Better odds on not being infectious for another. Better odds at not being discovered either because the child is not believed or one can convince the child not to tell. In some belief circles, cleansing of one's past mistakes. On the other side of the coin, attacking one's child is a way to hurt the parent. Finally, theoretically, attacking a target of high gain with little defensive potential. Putting that into words, where a child's mind is so simple that one might, possibly, condition the response from it by what they do.
(before others are shocked by such thoughts, in some lines of work, that's what I have to do, put myself in the head of the opposer)

In a world where it seems everyone is doing their own thing, even to say the heck with it, maybe they want part of it as well.
Of course, there is another aspect that has come up of the lack of years separation between the teachers in question and their students, of how it wasn't that long ago that they were in the same group as the students.....and for whatever reason, they aren't realizing that they aren't anymore.

For some, invoking a fantasy is to convince yourself that it can't go wrong.
Of course, there are lots of stupid people in the population, too.

True, you may not want to know.
I was at a police briefing on human trafficking. The presenter at one point stopped, asked if everyone there was Law Enforcement. Cop, Corrections, Researchers, yes we were. He then described one aspect, one market in trafficking that involved very young victims. I already knew about it from another briefing but it was of such nature that senior officers in the room were shocked.
Knowing about such things is part of my life, it is what I do, but as it is said, "Once seen, cannot be unseen."
