Please don't try to sell me on the idea that you see no difference between voluntary behavior (even on the part of a child who may not possess the ability to offer full, adult-level consent when it comes to sexual relationships) and involuntary behavior. If you do take that position then please don't ever post that you think a child should be held accountable for any of their actions no matter how heinous.

BTW, the post you responded to never even mentioned children, but it did attempt to illustrate the point that studies that find correlations between two activities don't necessarily show causal relationships between them.
