They generally shouldn't be. Most convicted sex offenders who used children will have been banned from working with children anyway, and in the UK, I know they have to sign the sex offender's register, so if you know someone who is making you feel uncomfortable, you can check it to see if they are on there and you should always tell an adult you trust, whether the person are on there or not, so the adult can stop anything bad happening to you.

In most cases, convicted child molesters are restricted from being around children after their release from prison. This restriction is typically part of their parole conditions and may include supervision, counseling, and limitations on where they can live or visit to ensure the safety of children.

It depends. A person who is convicted of a child sexual abuse crime will be required to register after release from prison, and will be prohibited from being around certain places that children frequent.

In the United States, it depends on a number of factors, most importantly whether the person is on probation or parole, as most probation/parole conditions include having no contact with anyone under the age of 18. Sexual offender registration does not typically restrict whether someone can have contact with children, though they may restrict access to or residence by schools, parks, libraries, and other places where children gather.

In short, it depends on the risk tier of the offender, the state they live in, and what their probation/parole requirements are (if any). In many states, it is legal for someone not on probation/parole to be around and have contact with children, even if they cannot frequent places where children can gather.

It should be noted that the vast majority (90-95%) of sexual crime against children is perpetrated by those trusted in the community with no criminal record: 90% of child sexual abuse is perpetrated by family or friends, not strangers (90%, Characteristics of Crimes Against Juveniles, Finkelhor and Shattuck, 2012), and 95% of new sexual crimes are committed by first-time offenders (Does A Watched Pot Boil? A Time-Series Analysis..., Sandler, Freeman, and Socia, 2008).
