Here's an idea. Stop hurling insults at parents who choose not to play the statistics game with their children.

*needed repeating and exactly right*
Here's another idea, round up the parents of kidnapped and murdered children and tell them it's ok, it's just a small statistic that your kid got killed.
With all due respect, you DO play the statistics game with your child. Every parent does.
For example: Every time you get the behind the wheel of your car with your child in it, there is a possiblity that an accident will occur and your child will die or be injured.
But you still drive.
Why? Because you consider the liklihood of that happening too remote.
Similarly, children die or get injured playing in sports every year. But your probably still let your child play sports.
Why? Again, you consider the likelihood of it happening too remote.
And the list goes on and on.
So, like it or not, you are playing the statistics game with your child everytime you let him or her out the front door.
