Is there any polite way, that maybe, your friend could ask the elderly man to submit to a background check before the kids go over there again? [/quote]

I’m team cautious but this is over the top - and not terribly helpful because most offenders aren’t caught and charged.

Assume the best. But never leave them alone together.  Never.[/quote]

Agree. Sending the kids off with the neighbor alone is a definite no go, and I can’t believe people are cool with it.

As for the friendship with the neighbor, I have seen friendships that start with such intensity so quickly have a tendency to lead to awkwardness - whether it’s one person who gets too attached and the other wants space, or one person oversteps their boundary, or they commit to something together either financially or timewise and one wants to back out. You have to give friendships room to grow. Regardless of the fact that one is a young sahm and the other is an elderly man, sounds like it could get complicated. Being neighbors in the middle of nowhere doesn’t help. [/quote]
