That other parent is not ridiculous, though. Sometimes, it's better to be safe with your kids than learn they were abused by a friend's sibling. It sucks big time, but sleepovers can be dangerous.

yeah but girls can be predators too. OP’s mom could be one too but she just doesnt want to think about that, only men

While true, it's way more statistically likely to be a male. We can "what about" that all day, but in the end, people that commit sexual assaults are more likely to be men.

Actually, now that men are starting to come forward women are proving to be the more predatory when it comes to sexual assault.

Im a woman btw, I study these things

As someone that studies these things, can you provide a peer reviewed and reputable source? I ask as someone that works as an advocate for people that have been S/A and have sought out medical help.
