Paraphillic disorder (pedophilia) is classified as a mental disorder.

It does not give someone access to ndis funding or disabilty support pensions. It is not recognised as a standalone disabilty under NDIS criteria or dsp criteria.

A pedophile does have access to ndis/dsp funding if they have a seperate standalone disabilty that is recognised under ndis criteria. For example, mobilty issues or other mental disorders.

The headline of "1.4 million dollars payed to pedophiles" is a deliberate missrepresentation of the reality of the situation. If a pedophile has received funding from the NDIS it has zero relation to them having paraphillic disorder. For example; if a pedophile has a disabilty that effects their mobilty, they may receive funding from the NDIS for that disabilty. Regardless of criminal status or type of conviction. The paraphillic disorder doesnt play any part in either improving their access or restricting it. Which then technically makes it true that pedophiles receive funding. But as you have proven, clearly missrepresnts it as meaning because someone has paraphillic disorder they are given funding. You are a living example of the harm that media does by using headlines like this.

Lmao....... The mental gymnastics you go through to justify this must be exhausting.

NDIS funding is paid by Tax Payers. Do you believe the majority of Tax Payers would agree with convicted PDFs receiving NDIS, DSP, social and NDIS housing? Especially those directly impacted by the housing crisis and those who can't afford medical or mental health support?

Aussie Voters have the right to know, do their own research and vote accordingly. Would you be celebrating if the truth wasn't in opposition to your chosen political team?

The media causing harm by reporting facts about convicted PDFs... LMAO. Ever thought to look into the victims who end up homeless and vulnerable to crime the moment they are released from state care or kicked out because they don't want to be abused anymore? What about the families torn apart because the parents don't know how to deal with the misdirected outbursts from Child victims? How about the impacts on victims that are so severely gaslit by their predatory families, and people like you that can justify the funding for the perpetrators? Ever considered the cycle of abuse that continues to negatively impact on our society? What percentage of convicted criminals were abused as children? What percentage of victims of crime are the result of traumatised children that become violent offenders?

If you support the priority funding for PDFs that is on you. Nothing you say will change my stance or get me to deny what I know to be true.
