blimey linn, thats heavy going. i think there are just some people like that. most of us are responsible. if we mess up we say sorry. we never set out to hurt or cause trouble for anyone and feel bad when we do.

emma, feel free to carry on posting, i find your posts either informative or amusing. *waves loo roll around like there's no tommorrow*   even though i don't like the song.

when i was going to school, the only way to get there was through the park. i was on a bike but that wouldn't have stopped anyone.
when i moved out i often went for a walk early hours of the morning, laying on a pinic table watching the stars.
while i admit that anything could have happened.i wasn't scared of anything happening.
if something had of, it wouldn't have been my fault for i was laying quietly bothering no one.

it sounds like kids are being scared. staying by houses is no guarantee of being safe, just as being in a park. in fact i would say the park was safer.you never know who is inside a house but can see people coming in the middle of a park.




risk is everywhere.
