It woudl depend on the term "interact". I assume my children interact with child molesters everday but I have no idea who they are. They can be their scout leaders, their pastor, the babysitter, teacher, relative. They can be just about anyone. I cannot control the potential actions of everyone my children contact. I can have some control over their environment. The primary control is not to let them be alone in private with anyone.
You see the trumpeted and widely publicized cases of people in positions of trust who've abused that trust, and you've inferred from that, that the threat is universal.
You have been manipulated by the Leftist media's campaign to sow distrust of what were once society's leaders, and you don't even know it.
How sad.
Bingo!
This not only protects the child it protects the adult as well. BSA policy is that you are not to be alone with a scout. You must have two deep leadership to run meeting or have an event.
Many churches will not let Sunday school workers start accepting children until there are 2 leaders in the classroom. I for one never left my children until there was more than one leader in the class.
This policy is just good common sense. Just like in bookkeeping proceedures. One person accepts the money, another processess the money into the system. I wonder how many parents out there in the world could tell how much they have in their CD or savings accounts, but can't tell you where their kids are at the moment.
