I'm glad you said, because I was biting my tongue!
Jtee, you sure like to make the case that the park is so innocent, and the kids are all good kids with cops around to make sure everything stays in order....but the fact is, cops are not parents or baby sitters. They aren't going to pick up on things if kids want to mess around, and they certainly aren't going to sit in on conversations to see what is, or isn't, appropriate for kids.
Even if my kid didn't have a sexual past at 11, I would still not let he/she go alone. Kid cliques hanging out is just the beginning of trouble. |
