I think it is healthy too. Because that gives the friend's kids other trusted adults that they can go to for help, issues, questions, etc.

You're the most moronically opinionated shut-in child on this forum. You have less life experience than my 14 year old brother, and you're more paranoid than my schizo uncle.
Everyone of your posts reads like some opinion article out of readers digest, except without any measureable amount of content. Were you molsted by your father, uncle and neighbor as a child, or do you just fantasize about it?

Why don't you just stfu and stick your balls out in the world and see what happens? Or you can just continue to look out your window while clinging tightly onto your blankie posting asinine crap on this forum.

You people are scared that the truth will come out about some of you all because your family members are lurking on this forum.

I am starting to get tired of your ignorant posts. Young children are very impressionable at a young age and being friendly with adults is actually good for their health.

this is the biggest load of bu!!shit thread in ages.

this type of crap is why teachers can no longer give a supportive hug to the crying first grader. this is the type of crap that makes it hard for fathers to interact with their teenage daughters in an affectionate way for fear that ppl might think a loving father hug is something more. this type of crap is the McMartin abuse case.

Sheesh!

cut the paranoid, victim fear mongering already, huh.

Let me take a guess at the truth. This thread is really about you, isn't it?

I enjoy being freinds with kids period, it brings some youth back into me.

I also enjoy teaching them and talking to them and showing them stuff there parents don't . I like to teach them my hobbies, like fishing, the outdoors etc. often there parents don't becuase it's not there hobby.

God forbid any adult comes within 10 yds. of your children. Maybe you shouldn't let the nurse or doctor touch your children when your wife gives birth.
