children and sex offenders

Published Oct. 19, 2009
Views: 302

Ok, so I just read the article on WRAL about the caretaker & her fiancee (a registered sex offender) being charged in the death of a 4-year old.  (Link to Article)

I will NEVER understand how this happens.  I am certain the parents never thought this man was capable of murdering their child, BUT they had to wonder if he wouldn't do something else, right??

I am very sorry, but I don't care WHO you are to ME; friend, family, father or foe, if you are a convicted sex offender that was convicted of some crime against a child, you will NOT be in the presence of MY child if I can help it.  I realize that I probably walk by 50 sex offenders every time I go to WalMart, but I'll say this - I'll dare any one of them to attempt to touch my child; and they most certainly will NOT be left to tend to my child.

This is, of course, my unadulterated opinion, and you all are entitled to your own on the subject.  My opinion is NOT up for debate, however, I am interested to see how others feel about the subject.  Feel free to comment about YOUR OWN opinion, but please do not bash others for theirs.

Thanks.

the poor baby.

Women need to be more aware of who they have around their children. Even if they are not a convicted offender you never know what someone is capable of doing. I would never fully trust any man around my child that is not his father and even then people need to be aware.

anyone that would commit sex acts with a child should be shot - end of problem

I agree PC. I have known women who would take their child around any and every dude that they met. Until some women realize that not all men are keepers this will continue to happen. Whatever happened to the waiting period where a woman didnt introduce a man to her child UNTIL months after she has dated him and feels real comfortable with what she think she knows?

Agree 100%. Child molesters and abusers have no place on this earth.....period. I feel the same about those that abuse their significant other as well.

I can't figure out whose baby this was. Why is that murdering skank listed as the "caretaker" and why was slime-boy even in the house? And the fact that this 22 year old fairly unattractive girl had a 36 year old boyfriend with a history as a sex offender is troubling in itself.

"I realize that I probably walk by 50 sex offenders every time I go to WalMart, but I'll say this - I'll dare any one of them to attempt to touch my child; and they most certainly will NOT be left to tend to my child."

No you won't. The publicity of those cases that do arise just m,akes it look that way. Also most sex offendors are not Pedophiles so they wouldn't be interested in your kid anyway.

One has to take basic steps to protect your children but one shouldn't be paranoid either.

"And the fact that this 22 year old fairly unattractive girl had a 36 year old boyfriend with a history as a sex offender is troubling in itself." - SkepticalGirl

I agree with this statement but, would add - why ANY woman, young or old, attractive or not, would want to be in a relationship with ANY man that would just as soon be doing unspeakable things to a child is beyond me!

Another thing is the daycares and especially the ones that are ran out of people's homes. There are very good ones(I believe a fellow goloer runs one) but people should talk to other parents that have kids there and know who else is in the home,make sure the children will never be left attended with anyone other than the daycare employee, do research. There are plenty of cases that have been on the news where children in these home daycares have been molested by husbands, boyfriends, or even sons of the daycare owner. One that was on the news recently was where the woman left her son with the children while she went to a Dr's appt. Children are too precious to trust them with just anyone.I am so thankful that my mother watches my child while I am at work.

anyone that would commit sex acts with a child should be shot - end of problem

I usually would not give an Amen on shooting someone..but in this case I will make an exception! Anyone who would hurt a child is useless to this society and has no place on this earth
