If by swooning, you mean being sexually/romantically attracted, then nothing at all, though the societal stigma against having such an attraction is very harsh. No one chooses whom they are attracted to, and attraction itself is just a feeling. Acting on that attraction with the child, however, can be seen as grooming or sexual abuse and is wrong in moral, legal, and ethical contexts. In other Words, a child cannot consent to any kind of romantic or sexual relationship, and you must refrain from taking any steps in that direction.
If you have difficulty with the feeling of being attracted to children, or otherwise feel that something is wrong with you because of it, then you may benefit from seeking a therapist whose expertise lies in pedophilia. Otherwise, it may be beneficial to find others with pedophilia who can be supportive.
