As you pointed out, this is just the ones they know about or have caught. Somebody called me last night offering "Child safety packets". I didn't understand most of what they were saying (I think English might have been a second language) but did catch the part about the number of missing children in this area having doubled in the past year. Eight years ago this was a "small, quiet town". I found it really boring compared to where I had lived up north. <br /><br />Between the reported number of sex offenders and the state of the public school system here, i find myself often wondering why I ever let my four children leave the house. If circumstances allowed, I would build a log cabin in the mountains, home school, and be done with it all. It is a scary, scary world out there; one that I increasingly find more unpleasant. <br /><br />I often wonder if the US of A is in a state of rapid decline or I am just showing my age.Margothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04276902436437311566noreply@blogger.com
