You don't bring it up, you simply have relationships with people that includes child-watching. Friends and neighbors are resources to each other. Abused people

You don't bring it up, you simply have relationships with people that includes child-watching. Friends and neighbors are resources to each other. Abused people absolutely take advantage of this. Your sarcasm is a little uncalled-for.
Also, is your anecdote simply to summon the image of a killer upon the author? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the write-up, and it's something you could do with any ideological or political group.
- ALittleLight 4y agoMy anecdote is the one time in my life I've experienced people try anarchy and it immediately degenerated into chaos, violence, and murder. I suspect that's the rule for anarchies. Regarding watching the children of the domestically abused - no. If I know someone well enough to watch their kids then I'm not going to just sit idly by while they are abused. I will contact the police, because I don't care if the abuser gets hurt, imprisoned, or killed - shouldn't have been abusing. If the police were magically off limits I would settle the problem directly - which, incidentally, is why rational people prefer legal systems with enforcement agents, so that they don't have to handle things by themselves and deal with the ensuing chaos and violence.
