Child molestation

I do believe young children should be supervised strictly but once they are **15/16 **you have to learn to let them make mistakes. How else will they learn? I’m doubtful that they will turn all evil villain on you and start smoking, drinking and have sex but we’re talking about child molestation and no matter how hard you try to supervise it’s never enough if you don’t want your kid to be persuaded don’t just say “don’t talk to strangers”, “don’t accept candy from strangers” you have to also give reasons why. Why shouldn’t they? Why shouldn’t they trust this person?

Parents will always be fearful of the big bad world out there and kids will always be trustful but you can’t watch them 24/7 that won’t help and it would just agitate the child and he/she would want to go against what you tell them more.

So what I’m saying is reason with them, explain why its dangerous to trust everyone out there and that you only want them to be safe.

i think the topis is about younger children and not 15 - 16 year olds who can clearly understand that this kind of behaviour is wrong.
I know of a girl aged between 5 and 6 who was molested by her own mamoon, why wouldn’t I fear for my kids then.
I trust my brother and my brother in laws, my sisters and my parents but I will definitely be careful and not leave the kids ever completely alone with rest of the uncles and aunties.
