I think at times that I am over protective of my children, I am just really aware that times are not what they used to be. I can remember being a kid and being able to be outside on my street playing with friends, without too much adult supervision, I cannot even imagine allowing my kids to do the same. I don't remember having any great fear of strangers as a kid, but now as a father I think I have lost my mind. lol. For example, we would be out as a family, and at times people see my kids and feel the need to say hello and "Oh they are so cute", which I appreciate, as opposed to "Oh My Gosh" what are those things with you. lol I get weird with the random old man wanting to come up and carry long conversations, follow along in the mall or store etc..
With all the stories we all hear and read about, everyone is a potential creep, I don't think that of everyone but some people just fit the part.
(I'm not saying this guy did anything)
If they tell you that the old guy at the mall is harmless, who knows? Somebody could have lied.
