And here is my testimony. A registered sex offender was following kids to the bus stop. The police would not do anything because it was the word of the kids against his. No evidence. My Granddaughter videoed him doing it with her smartphone and he went to jail.
Without that video he would still be stalking those kids to the bus stop or worse. Turns out he was the one who just a few months prior killed an 11 year old girl just over the hill. He was identified by DNA after he was busted by my Granddaughter.
THAT is our new reality and it is dangerous out there for children. THAT is why our kids have cellphones and we know where they are at all times. THAT is why our kids can dial 911 at the drop of a hat.
That is a powerful testimony. I’m very glad that it worked out that way for your family. However, I think that most children and adults use their phones far too much for frivolous and unhealthy things and that this has a profoundly negative impact on society and particularly our children.
