Pedophilia

Pedophilia (paedophilia in British English) is a paraphilia and a psychiatric disorder when a person 16 years of age or older is primarily or exclusively sexually attracted to children who have not begun puberty (usually under 13-14 years old, depending also on sexes).^{[1][2][3][4][5][6]} Richard von Krafft-Ebing introduced the term in 1886 when spoke about Paedophilia erotica.
