[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now, if he was ranting to kill everyone, okay, I can see your fear, but if he was angry at specific people, why would you fear for your little ones?  Seems a bit much to me.[/quote]

So, what you're saying is that, if someone is threatening to kill specific people that are not your children, it's totally fine for your children to spend time with them?  I'm sorry, THAT seems "a bit much" to much.   If someone is expressing homicidal motives towards ANYONE I think that that the reasonable, responsible thing to do is keep your children away from them.  I mean, are we seriously asking this question??? Have we gotten so politically correct that it's now inappropriate to avoid exposing your children to potentially threatening people because (a) it unfairly "stigmatizes" mental illness, and (b) it's unfair to make someone else in your family have to deal with it?

I'm sorry, I'm a super progressive mommy but this all just seems extremely ridiculous and potentially dangerous to me.  If someone doesn't pass your mommy gut check, you shouldn't take your children to see them.  Period.[/quote]
