    A hyphen is required to specify that the pedophiles are eating children, and not that the child is eating pedophiles.

      you would have to say “a child eating pedophiles” and not “child eating pedophiles” for me to interpret it that way, but “a child eating pedophile” singular not plural is back to the pedophile doing the eating… unless its a caption…
