The problem here lies with desire. Comparing becoming ambidextrous with learning to be attracted to something that you are not formerly attracted to are not on the same plane of learning. NOT abusing children can be learned, but the desires are likely never to disappear, which is part of the reason sex offenders are on a registered list (not saying I agree with the violation of privacy, but the general consensus is that it cannot simply be "cured").
I work in an intensive rehab facility for the mentally ill (level 4-5, just below a hospital setting), and deal with many disorders, most commonly BPD and schizoaffective. I see where you're coming there as well, but again, treated borderline is learning different behaviors and coping mechanisms, whereas this particular type of sex offender is physically and emotionally attracted to children, not men or women. Can you teach someone to be attracted to something they're not? If so, can you teach homosexuals to become hetero?
