And yes, sometimes it may happen that you let them play somewhere where no one keeps an eye on what's happening, which you shouldn't do to begin with to avoid those kinds of situations, but then you don't need to get unnecessarily graphic about what might happen to them and inadvertently traumatize them anyway. Thus my comment about how she might've overdone it.
This is getting on my fucking nerves. You're arguing against something I didn't necessarily say. Maybe you should pay closer attention to what I did say. I said she was overdoing it, for example, not blaming her for doing it at all, which I should and I am, albeit to a lesser degree, but I didn't and we didn't get around to that yet, until just now.
it's impossible to always keep an eye on your children. It would mean following them for the first 12 years of their life, It's common for children of 11 or 12 to take public transport on their own and be miles away from parents and go where they want.
Thena said she told her kids precisely what happens (without being too graphic) about what happens when children are kidnapped.
So now you're saying well that might be over doing it because it might be too graphic, well she specifically said she explained it without being too graphic.
So you're arguing about something which was specifically already dealt with in the first post which you were replying to.
Because he's trying to use word salad and backtracking to get out of the corner he's been backed into, due to his extremely shitty advice.
