Think tank slams paedophile paranoia culture.
An independent think tank has today blamed the government's increasing reliance on "anti-paedophile" criminal record checks for making UK adults scared to have any contact with other people's children.
Finally . Let's hope we slowly swing back towards some common sense on the issue. Still, at least the idea that anyone could bugger your children senseless and kill them is at least a progression from the prejudice that said that it was only something gay men did, I remember a few of my friends who said that they took extreme care not to be in any situation with children because they didn't want to open themselves up to the hysteria.
And we all remember the days of the Paedofinder General.
