[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your kids are more likely to get shot in a school shooting or get into a car accident driving with you, than something happen to them at a sleepover.

Fear mongering at it's finest. [/quote]

Many more kids are sexually abused by family friends, or other people they know than are shot in school shootings.  To put school shootings in the same category as car accidents when you're talking about statistics is ridiculous.

[b]Sexual abuse by someone you know is a relatively frequent thing[/b], much more frequent than school shootings, or stranger abductions, for example.  [/quote]

Can you give me the statistics on your opinions of a relatively frequent thing?

And what is the point of only allowing sleepovers with people you know than?  Sounds safer to have sleepovers with families you don't know.  Strangers are safer.  
Probably should divorce your husband and kick him out too.  No grandparent sleepovers either.  Cousin sleepovers?  No way.

Sorry, this is 100% fear mongering.  [/quote]
