I keep seeing arguments that it's "rare", but I don't think that's actually the case. When I read about multiple cases in the news, _and_ 1 parent (out of only 12) in my cub scout den had to deal with someone calling the police on his kid playing alone, it certainly seems like a real threat. It's going to have a chilling effect. The problem isn't that you're going to go to jail, it's that once you're on the radar of a state agency, it's scary, and you end up in the position to prove that your home and family are safe for your kids. It's embarrassing and deliberately intimidating, and you ultimately have no power to stop at least a small disruption in your kids' lives.
