Losty, I am pretty sure EP isn't trolling, he is just behaving as he usually does everywhere.
EP, you suggested this about Thena: "Not to mention you sound a bit like a maniac. Shouldn't be looking after kids in the first place, if you ask me." which is a pretty shitty thing to say based on the discussion till that point. You don't know anything about her or why she did what she did, and you have no right to judge her. Also since you are basing this on statistics, look at https://www.childhelp.org/child-abuse-statistics or just google for other reports. For a parent, they have to be extra careful because most of the time these dangers occur from people close to or even within the family. A parent's job doesn't end with just protecting the child but ensuring the child can protect itself when needed.
People, most of you, if not all, have prior experience with EP. If you don't care for his opinions, just ignore him, but please stop derailing this further with pointless arguments.
It's amazing how much sense you can make in this case and I think it's only because we got to know each other in Mafia.
It was a shitty thing for me to say, and I didn't really mean it, I was just overreacting to something she said that hurt me. She instantly dismissed my argument because she thought I had ill intent towards her because of other posts of mine from other threads.
I don't know anything about the statistics. I was suggesting she look at them in order to better inform her actions. I know, I was basically assuming she didn't, which I shouldn't have.
Yes, I agree with everything else.
You're so nice, Magi.
