  Buddy you have got to rephrase this.

    It’s not my phrasing, take it up with the OP.

      You’re interpreting a child being the subject of the statement. For this to be true, the original text would need to say ‘a child’. Only then would the sentence mean there’s a child going about eating paedophiles

        No I’m not, I’m interpreting it as the object of the preposition by. The lack of hyphenation means that child is either a noun which is eating pedophiles or an adjective describing pedophiles who are eating. Presumably neither is what the author intended.
