Please stay safe out there…

YES!

Oooh I LOVE this.

Fuck helping men. You're not his momma. You don't owe him shit

I don't even talk to male kids, a 10 year old goes around asking grown women if he can touch them. Cops do nothing because he's a kid.

He's prolly gonna end up on the sex offender registry in the next 5-10 years. I guarantee it

Even that depends on if I know the kid.

Otherwise: If a small child obviously needs help (e.g. is visibly injured, lost or in danger), sure, I'll help, alert the staff of wherever we are or call emergency services.

Lots of criminals use children to lure people in and distract them, though, especially pickpockets and burglars, so be careful.

A few weeks ago I passed a boy (around 11) who lives on my street on the way home. He had obviously fallen with his bicycle and was pushing it and his knees were bleeding and it was raining, too. When I asked he told me that he couldn't reach anyone at home, because his parents were still at work. Of course I helped and drove him home.

Stopping for a boy the same age who said he needed help in a big city got me pickpocketed for the first time in my life... by him and his only slightly older accomplice.

It's peak pickmeism.

Imagine considering the feelings of a male stranger to be more important than your own and your children's safety. It's putting the feelings of your own natural predator over your instinct of self-preservation and the instinct to protect your children.

Imagine a mother bird inviting a cat into the nest where her babies are because the cat looked "sad". That's the level of insanity and stupidity this is.

Lol that's a good example, even birds and tigers are aware to not trust anyone with their babies, a mama grizzly bear would maul you if you even look at their babies. Yet the human mother so idiotic and blind that they see imaginary dangers everywhere except towards the people who are a threat.

I never could trust my mother because I never felt she protected me from the people or thing I wanted protection from, only for the things that made her paranoia flare up. But despite that I learned that self preservation is something you need to do alone, my house is my safe haven, nobody is allowed to live there, Homeless? too bad you can sit in the yard for a cup of tea but you are not moving in. Ever. If you allow humans in your sanctuary then it's no longer a safe haven. Mother is the type of person that lets any scrote or pickme in because it's family or a person she likes. Yet I'm told I'm being hard on her for saying she succeeded as a good samaritan but failed as a mother.

My nmom does this SAME exact thing. She's an insane pick me in my eyes because she will put herself in potentially dangerous situations to hear out the poor man crying wolf that could end up hurting me or her. There was this time she made a mistake driving and a guy on motorcycle followed us into the starbucks parking lot to scold her. I asked her why she stopped to hear him??? He could've had a gun?? I was in the car too! Who tf just lets a random angry stranger pull up to you in the car? I was pissed.

I understand she made a driving mistake but just own it. Don't let angry man scold you wtf. I think my mom just loves having all kinds of attention and validation from men because she's otherwise so miserable.

She pretty much worships my brothers and dad even though they treat her like garbage. But me? Nope, she does that same fear mongering trying to instill anxiety into me and give me mental problems.

I know, a man asked the way and when I offered to walk him there he asked for my phone number, Men have no shame.

I never offer to help a man. Even when he's approached me. I just say 'sorry, can't' over my shoulder as I walk away. But it was drilled into me when I was a pre-teen that men will not ask for help from women unless they're looking to take advantage, and I have a zero-fucks-left attitude towards men anyway.
