You want to wait for the first ten year old children to be raped? Are you nuts?
I want parents to teach their children what they always should have taught them about caution in public.
Expecting any place, even Walmart, to be your babysitter is just plain nuts.
For decades there has been a custom where a parent, even of the opposite sex, will accompany their very young child into a rest room — partly to prevent confusion, partly because there always are those wrong people.
You want to start to be able to go in unprotected to the market place? Are YOU nuts?
No, teach the children caution as they always should have been, and let the grownups do the complaining about anything untoward. The whole idea of a family restroom should be a big hint. Let Dad go in there with Susie, Mom go in there with Johnny.
I think we’ve been spoiled, we’ve expected society to be an oasis. Without thinking of the underpinnings of any lasting respite, which is not fig leaves. Just watch “liberals” make mincemeat of the situation. This has been, what, a week? You can bet lefty planners are not stunned, but have been ready for this with countermoves.
I can sympathize with the sentiment, however at some point we cannot cover every wall with foam padding. We have to be careful not to charge into it with uncovered heads.
