What Would You Do?
If a convicted pedophile moved into a residence within a block of your neighborhood, what would you do? Unfortunately for myself and my family, for the past two days, rumors of such a thing are taking place. Numerous posters with a photograph have been circulated and the man has been seen in the neighborhood. I live close to a daycare center, elementary school and busy strip mall, with a pedophile possibly living very close by, our day to day lives have be altered. My children who are six and eight years old are no longer allowed to play outside, walk home from the school bus alone or fall asleep at night without asking tons of questions about the man they have seen in posters around the neighborhood. "What does he do to kids", they ask. How do you answer that question? Aside from ensuring that they know to stay away from him if they see him, and making sure that they are in our sight 24/7, what else can we do? Calls have been made to the Police who at this time cannot confirm the man's identity, but at the same time will not deny the allegations. We were told to circulate all the posters we could...just don't get caught. I think that BEFORE a convicted pedophile moves into a neighborhood, it should become public knowledge. We were told that within a certain amount of time the public would be made aware. Does anyone know if this is true? In the meantime...what would you do?
