Yup. Even volunteering in the kids classroom (elementary) was an eye opening experience. It would be nuts to be under that much suspicion day in and out.

  This is so sad to me, but my experiences volunteering as a male have been the same. Even though women are statistically more likely to be a child murderer, it's fine for women to be alone with children, where men are viewed as a liability any time they are alone with kids. Not looking forward to that part of fatherhood once I have kids of my own.

    Yeah, because a child is much more likely to get molested than murdered. And that’s before taking into account that most child murders are probably committed by the child’s parents, not by teachers.

      And most child molestations also happen from family, not teachers. Do you see his point now?
      • toasterlovin 9y ago
        The only thing that matters is whether molestation by non-family members is common enough to not be a freak occurrence (which is what a non-family member murdering your child would be).
