Having been involved in an intimate adult/child relationship at the age of 13, I can attest to the fact that, as long as the sexual relationship is willing and consensual, and the motive of the heart is love, then by all means an intimate adult/child relationship can be a wonderful thing.

Within the parameters of true love for God I believe we are free to enjoy our sexuality as fully as we desire, in the manner we desire and with whom we desire. Loving God means that we honor His requirement that we treat others as we desire to be treated. It means that we treat boys with respect and dignity, that we demonstrate concern for their welfare, that we do nothing that compromises their safety and well-being or takes advantage of their vulnerability.

That said, I do not believe that "chaos" is always a forgone conclusion, and the child is always damaged. Certainly if an adult/child relationship is exposed, those in authority always classify the relationship as molestation and sexual abuse, and the boy as a "vicitm". My relationship was not abusive, I certainly was not damaged, nor was I a victim. My intimate relationship with my music teacher was one of the most wonderful, fulfilling experiences of my life.
