Why are so many people online against talking to children? I always see on here and other socials people with things like “adults only” “18+ only” “minors do not interact” “no minors” etc. In their bio. No, I’m not a child, I’m a whole adult. Just curious
"Death Of The Soul" by Alex (Part 1)
There are many reasons why adults are afraid to associate with young people and much of it relates to the numerous crimes and abuses that adults have perpetrated upon our youth over the years and centuries. The list is long so I will only mention a few:
- Priests molesting young people
- Teachers having sex with students
- Parents abusing their children
- Wealthy people like Jeffrey Epstein arranging for young girls to have sexual intercourse with politicians, millionaires/billionaires, businessmen and world leaders.
There are many more documented cases that I could list, but you get the point I am making. As a result, society has demanded that our children and young people be protected by law and that these laws be aggressively enforced and adult perverts be punished.
Other contributing factors are the "Me Too Movement," pervasive groupthink and victimhood movements, the LGBT+ ideology and a belief that whatever alleged victims say it must be true and therefore the alleged perpetrator is "guilty" and must prove his/her innocence. These combined forces have made many adults nervous and fearful of false allegations because we understand that if we are wrongly accused of a sex crime, it is likely that we will lose our family and friends, our employment and all of our assets. In addition, there is a high probablity that we would be found guilty and sent to prison.
A friend of mine who was a prosecutor and is now is a successful defense attorney specializing in sex crimes, told me that 80% of the men imprisoned for sex crimes in the state where he practices law are, in his opinion, innocent. And he also admits that the judicial system, our media and our society believe that if a man is accused of a sex crime, he is guilty and must prove his innocence.
I would challenge anyone reading this essay to talk to an innocent man who has been falsely accused of a sex crime and ask him if he was treated fairly and assumed innocent until proven guilty or if he was instead, treat like a criminal who must prove his innocence? I could provide more graphic detail of what I am talking about, but I have said enough and hopefully you understand the point I am making.
My son is a director of Music and Arts in a well known private high school and to protect himself from false allegations, he had the school install video cameras in his office and bandroom. Students are only allowed to meet with him if other adults and students are present and the doors are left open. In my private life, I teach guitar lessons and require that a parent be present at all times to protect myself from false allegations. And whenever I am in the presence of women (young or old) I always ask my wife or daughter to accompany me and if they cannot, I will not attend the event. (cont)
