[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like a lot of parents here in this thread should be less worried about the what ifs at a sleepover, and more worried about the anxiety disorder they are likely giving their children by treating every mundane activity like a potential death trap.

Not knowing the parents is not just a “mundane activity”[/quote]

It’s fine to want to meet the parents or ask questions, but some of these comments are insane. The hard ban or wanting to interview the parents of their high school seniors.

Beware teaching your kids that the world is a big scary place that is out to get them at every turn, and that they can’t be trusted to navigate any of that themselves. Some parents I see still walk their middle schoolers to the bus stop. It’s weird and not healthy.

Yes- bad stuff happens, but most of the time the molesters are a family member or close friend. If you keep your kid afraid and sheltered, in the end they are usually more vulnerable [/quote]
