Have a look at the Megan's Law registry. Tell me how close the nearest violent sexual predator is to you.
A few months ago, I discovered that one lived on my street. He has since been arrested and is no longer in the neighborhood.
But, it's not just out-of-place perverts. I am also on the lookout for under supervised children who "play" too violently.
I knew that I would be concerned about vehicles, so I was sure to buy a house with a large, fenced in, backyard. It's away from the street and even adjacent to a small patch of woods. They can have outdoor adventures and I can have peace of mind.
- DanBC 9y agoChildren are sexually abused by family members, then by adults at schools and clubs they visit. Abuse by strangers is rare.
- __throwaway715 9y agoTrue - my molester was a long time friend of the family, close enough that me going on a vacation trip to his state park campground trailer wasn't an unusual summer thing. Took me 25 years to remember exactly what had gone on, and a couple of years of therapy to get back to somewhat steady on my emotional feet. Never 100% sure of that anymore, but I try.
- LordKano 9y agoTrue. My position as a sheepdog isn't limited to strangers. My children aren't unsupervised with many relatives or family friends either. They're also not left unsupervised with clergy.
