I did the same as a kid but then if someone even thought about molesting he wouldn’t even make it to the cops. Now, the molester is rationalized. I let my kids make mistakes but I still keep them on a short leash. Times have changed and the author who is whining about its type is the cause of it.

It looks to me that the author is spot on. The statistics on child molesters aren’t that much more prevalent than 30 or 40 years ago. It is just awareness that has changed. That is good, but, as I said it seems that bubble-wrap and overscheduling is not a particularly good remedy.

It ain’t whining if it is accurate.
