I believe there is always other female assistant/helper at the classroom. And, my girl is potty trained, but she may pull down her pant/underwear once in a while or not pull up her pant/underwear after potty.

I think it should be okay, but I want to ask how do you feel?

Absolutely not. We don’t want a man alone with a preschool child. Period.

Exactly. People need to look at statistics.

I used to teacher first grade and many students needed help unbuttoning pants or with belts (even though we would tell parents to have kids use elastic pants or easy to unbutton pants) .Or little kids would want to hug on you or grab onto you. It puts male teachers in an awkward position if someone walked in and saw the teacher unbuttoning a young kids pant button.

So if the preschool teacher is too hands on it is seen as being creepy but if they are not hands on enough then the child suffers.

Now add to that the vast majority of preschool teachers who have sexually abused kids are male. The elementary school where I taught a male teacher was convicted of sexual abusing kids the year before I joined the school.

Recent local cases. Here are three but there unfortunately are many more.
August 2024: Maryland. Mark Cobb, 44, is accused of engaging in a year-long texting relationship with a 9-year-old student, during which he allegedly requested and received explicit photos.

June 2024: Matthew Schlegel, 44, who worked as an elementary school teacher in Severna Park, Md., faces 55 charges of sexual abuse of at least eight children under his instruction

2019. Virigina. Several young children were sexually abused at a Virginia preschool, Taylor Keith Boykin, 27, admitted sexually molesting four girls, but prosecutors also revealed as many as 15 children were victims of improper touching by Boykin.

The list of men assaulting little children is endless. It’s outrageous how many of them do it for years and years. Why?

People don’t have the guts to report suspicions. You also need to know your child to recognize when something seems off.

Not your job to produce evidence. Trained and experienced detectives do that.

These monsters want you to stay quiet.

My son had a male daycare provider and a male preschool teacher. I was totally fine with it and glad that he saw men doing "traditional women roles".

Nope.
