Who do we turn to when our children are in need? It concerns me that a number of firefighters, teachers and cops are making horrible decisions and alledgedly molesting children. When I was a little girl, I knew that if I was lost, I was to find a police man or other "community helper" and tell them that I was lost. Now, however, I do not know that I would tell my children to do that. I would be afraid that someone would take advantage of my child.
What about teachers? The other special adult in a child's life. As a student becoming a teacher, it hurts and annoys me that these teachers take advantage of their power, and help themselves to the innocence of children. UGHHHHHH!!! It saddens my heart, and I hope that the students coming out of various schools, and police and fire academies will restore the trust and keep the innocence of the children they come converse with daily.
