Are you in the witness protection program or just extremely paranoid?

but its got nothing to do with being paranoid... its all about internet safety and its obvious that the teacher has no clue what that means...

No. You did not overreact. When you went to the school the first time, they should have fixed the problem then. The fact you had to go to the cops shows me that school is absolute crap.

It only takes one bad person to kill a kid. The kid is then gone, forever. Best intentions or not, it shouldn't have happened. They handled your situation poorly and there is no excuse for it.

This is only one reason why we homeschool.

A good, paranoid parent usually keeps their kids from all sorts of terrible things.

So a child molester is going to get your child's name and school location off of a website and walk around the school asking for your child by name with no other information? Doing something like that would obviously cause people to ask questions and leave a lot of witnesses.. Odds are, they'll just snatch your kid off the street on the walk home without even knowing her name and never even heard of that math website you're talking about. Child molesters don't need a name and location to know that children go to schools.

Randy, with all due respect, a lot of child molesters stalk kids before snatching them. The name and school is a perfect place to start stalking.

She did not overreact, at all. I pity your kids if you are so lax with their care as to allow someone to post such personal information about them. Shame on you for trying to make this lady feel bad for keeping her kid safe.

Dar, you've got to tell the other parents. They need to know, and need to know how to remove their children, and NEED to know that the school wouldn't do anything about it.

however from the information that the teacher provided you can get a LOT of information... like the kids address... you need to know how the mind of a sexual predator works... they are intelligent as much as that pains me to say... they are very skilled at their craft...

from sally smith and a school name.... you can then narrow down the geographical area in which the child lives... you can then search the public directories and get a phone number... now my last name is NOT smith and I am the only one... so now this sicko has my childs name and address... and they also know that my child is a so -so math student... I am not dumb as a stump... so I dont fall for scams.... but lets put the shoe on another foot... and you get a phone call that goes like this...

Hi may I please speak to Mrs. Smith?...

This is her....

Hi Mrs Smith my name is pete johnson from the bogus city school board... I was given your daughter, Sally's information from Mrs neglectful teacher because she feels like I can be of some assistance. I can see from her math scores that she has a C average and we would like to help her with some of the fundamentals of math so we can hopefully bring that grade up so her passing is not at risk. I am offering to meet with your daughter twice a week after school or at a time of your convince and offer free tutoring that will be covered by the local school board.

**the parent hears free!!! and they are hooked...... because after all they called you... they know that sally is struggling in math... they said they were from the school board and know what school she goes to right... oh and they even know our address so it must be legit.... but really the thought of getting something for nothing was the real hook line and sinker..


trust me when I say sadly this happens everyday!!!! child sexual predators lure children everyday over the internet... usually there is a period of time for grooming.. meaning that the offender will gain the trust of the parents and the child by offering to come to the childs home and then suggest that maybe it would be a better idea to meet at the office because thats where all the resources are right.... and after all sallys marks on her weekly tests have improved so the extra help must be working...

No they don't - they might require the name of the school but they do not require the full name of students.

I agree and hope you stick to your guns. Just because they are in education does not mean you should trust them to know what is best for your child. These days teachers are barely 25 and I know how I was at that age and it wasn't good.


I wish you the best,

Rancher

Randy, I notice you didn't use your real name, or is "Chickens" really your last name? I than looked at your profile and noticed that you haven't listed a location or any other personal information. Are you in the witness protection program or just paranoid?
