“A)Men commit the vast majority of crimes against kids.
B)The vast majority of men are just guys walking around trying to lead honest lives.”

Thank you!
Yes! I agree with both statements.

“Which one do you use as a guiding principle when it comes to keeping your kids safe?”

I don’t send my kids alone on flights, but if I did, I would feel more comfortable if they traveled with a woman.

There have been times I wouldn’t send my daughter to friends’ homes overnight if I knew there were older boys present (for ex: one friend’s older brother had a reputation as a creep)

Because of the scandal of the Church - it is standard policy for the priests to always have another adult with them when there are activities involving children.

This protects the kids, but it also protects the priests from possible false accusations.

Gavin De Becker, who wrote one of the best books available on personal security (the Gift of Fear) strongly suggests training kids from an early age to seek out women if lost or in trouble.
