I do feel sorry for dads in the USA. Surprised more of you guys don't go postal when out in public...
"OH MY GOD! THAT LITTLE GIRL IS CRYING! WHERE IS HER MOMMY?! WHO THE FUCK IS THAT MAN TALKING TO HER?! SOMEONE CALL 911!!!!"
"Uh, she's my daughter. And she's crying because she just stumbled and hit her knee. She'll be okay in a minute. Also, could you take it down a notch? You're frightening her."
"WHY SHOULD I BELIEVE YOU?! DON'T YOU DARE PICK HER UP!! OH MY GOD!!! HE'S HUGGING HER! HE'S HUGGING HER!!! HELP! HELP!!! SOMEONE!! ANYONE!!! OFFICER, SHOOT HIM!!!!!!!!"
Last summer I was driving home from work in a downpour thunderstorm. Waiting at a roadside bus stop I saw two kids, the older couldn't have been more than 10 years old, huddled together in the rain. I wanted to help them, let them sit in my car until the bus came or something but in today's fucked up, backwards society I knew that would have been a bad idea.
Sorry to leave you soaked kiddos but I don't want to go to jail.

I've actually never had that happen. Even when my daughter is running away from me as fast as she can in the grocery store, screaming "HELP ME" at the top of her lungs because its ~hilarious~ to her. Lucky I guess.
I was at the park here pushing my daughter in the swing. There was a little girl next to us who couldn't reach the pull up bar. She asked me 3 times to lift her up. Her mom had been sitting in the car reading a book, we were the only ones in the park. I ignored here for a while, then I finally did it. Very carefully with my arms all the way out, I grabbed her wrists and lifted her up the 3 inches. Her mom came running out of the car, "time to go home!" grabbed her and ran off.
I'm definitely not teaching my kids the stranger danger thing. I teach just the opposite, I make them talk to strangers. Most abductions/molestations are by someone the kid knows. The odds a stranger is going to give them a problem is vanishingly small. I'm way more worried that they'll grow up anxiety and antisocial issues than they'll be abducted. It's not like they are allowed to leave momma's sight anyway.
