l123 -- bingo.

Sad and true.

I have had the same experiences. Little league, not soccer though.

I can be known to my kid's teachers. I can be known to some/most of the administration of the school. But I can't be known to all the security staff, all the volunteers, all the lunchroom/playground/library adults...

orthodoc recently posted a terribly sad story about his kid's teacher. wtf?! How can you simultaneously have an appropriate level of skepticism and concern and still give these unknown (to me, and I to them) adults access to my child?

This is a question I do not have a ready, repeatable answer to.

Appearances are no help. Picture taking behavior is no indicator. I can feel another thread coming on....
