Is Pedophobia illogical. i was told that anyone seeking help knows that their fear is illogical but am i wrong or just weird that children sort of scare me. I am not someone who is militant or anything but i get anxtious being near those that cant control themselves who are most often than not children. i bet i must sound really crazy to any readers but its such a real anxiety for me. since children are so free spirited and encouraged to be for whatever purposes, many times they are allowed to and sometimes run amuck. i am told that all people do this and that i probably did but for some reason i dwell on the potential for misbehaiover and have a hard time stopping. many of the children i am surrounded by can be so disrespectful that i makes me not want to associate with them. is this bad. as far as my childhood goes, i was the shy kid who got taken advantage of a lot and as family life is concerned i got chastised for rational things and never got hit for any normal age realted behavior. i fear this fear because the person i want to spend my life with may want children down the road and I wonder if i am indeed normal.

Normal fear, common. Is it illogical? In a way yes. Children are relatively harmless. They can be a bit frightening since they are the least predictable humans though. I understand your fear. I dont fear them though. You'll get over your fear eventually.
