I am all for mommy radar… if it feels bad to you, you definately should make sure your kids are safe.

but too often mommy radar isn’t working at all with people we think we know and trust… making home the most dangerous environment for child molestation… and works overtime if the person is a stranger.

Yes.. you would feel terrible if you did nothing at all and then later learned of the person molesting kids at the park.

however, even then, without a picture to confirm, it could have been someone else.

It’s a good policy to speak with every person who interacts with your kids.. You may find that your perceptions change… even if you thought you knew that person well.

It is too easy to make really nasty assumptions about the people.. especially stangers… who interact with your kids…

even nice looking little old ladies like me.

I encourage reporting suspicious behavior..

but keeping your suspicions about people to yourself.
