“It feels” Come on people. Do you really know more about how to handle this case than the FBI’s Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force? Seriously? |
Yeah I don't think this is true. I think these networks are largely online and secretive. They have their "friends" in these sick communities, but these are also men with a lot to lose, I think most draw a pretty hard line between their online depravity and "real life." I'm sure there are some trafficking networks where they are working together in person to pump out material, but I don't think the average professional suburban guy engaged in this is spouting off to his friends about their secret or meeting people from the internet. Particularly (if true per the affidavit) they weren't engaged in acting out anything personally, just trading images. There are a LOT of these creeps out there, probably more in professions who work with kids, I don't think it's a sure thing both teachers were in cahoots. |
This is grossly sexist and sounds like it came out of a naive high schoolers mouth. Clearly someone who has never raised kids or known anyone to raise kids. |
Really not sure why that merits attacking SAHMs. To be clear- I personally think more men should work in childcare. People need to read To Raise a Boy by Emma Brown. She talks about the issues surrounding lack of male teachers in preschools and childcare, and how this negatively impacts boys. |
So the PP jumps to the conclusion all those people are SAHMs? More likely they are parents who have left their kids to be raised by others and complain when they feel obliged to attend Tea with Mommy and Doughnuts with Daddy because it is so hard to move all their meetings. And are so uninvolved at their kids’ school that they don’t even know the names of their kids’ teachers much less how often their kid is alone with a male teacher. You mean lots of people like that? |

Sex abuse in schools is unfortunately common and mostly perpetrated by men. But remember women can abuse kids in other ways (physical, verbal, emotional) |
Were you saying the same thing when 99 percent of this thread has been bashing the entire male gender instead of just bashing Caroll |
I support men working in preschools. My kids have even had a male preschool teacher who we love and trust. So yes. |
I really get sick of people who don’t understand how numbers work. Sure, if 93% of abusers are men, that’s really lopsided. However, what percent of male educators are abusers? Fact: A shocking percentage of the male employees at NCRC/BVR are abusers The fact that men represent a much smaller share of teachers but are the overwhelming majority of abusers suggests that the probability of a male educator being an abuser is significantly higher than a female educator being an abuser. That was the point being made. Are you also the parent that refuses to let your child go to a friend’s house if the friend has a stay-at-home dad, and so the mom won’t be there, because she’s working? |
Ok. Sorry |
No, it is not common. Even one case of it is too much but as horrible as it is, it is thankfully not “common” in schools. It is much more common for kids to be sexually abused at their home or the perpetrators home than at school or anywhere else. |
A tangent: how did The Independent get this DC-based stories hours ahead of the local media? |
+1 |
Its more common in your home than it would be in a school. |
You have to jump through more hoops and the tenant has a right of first refusal in DC if the owner decides to just sell. Instead, if they repossess for personal use and then sell sometime later (I'm not sure what the holding period must be), they don't have to worry about the hoops/right of first refusal. |
