[quote=Anonymous]OP- i get it, as a parent, one of my worst fears is that your child will become a victim of a predator. I don't think we should demonize a parent for this terrifying concern. That said, it's not helpful to live in a state of paranoia. As others have said, there are ways to protect your child, and definitely follow your instincts. There are quite a few young men who coach as a side-hustle. My DH did so for a while before we had kids, pay is actually not bad (40/50/hr!), and he did it because he loves the sport, and was interested in making that his full-time career. As others have said, the key is to ensure (as much as possible) that kids are not isolated and are in public places. This protects everybody. Going into camp season, i think about this a lot, because there's only so much you can control, but will definitely ensure my little one is empowered to speak up if anything strange is going on.
