PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN!!

No crap, we just saw one of Matt's old friends on To Catch a Predator. He was just a Marine, nice guy, we actually had him out to our house a bit when we lived in Southern California. Just be careful; it's almost impossible to know who might be capable of harming a child. (The show I mentioned is on NBC; it shows sting operations for sexual predators online.) The episode that aired tonight was out of Longbeach, where cops (along with Chris Hansen from NBC) caught FIFTY-ONE of these perverts before moving on to another location. To check your area for local predators, go to familywatchdog.us where you'll find names, pictures, and detailed lists of offenses. It also doesn't hurt to check out other areas on there that your kids frequent- grandparents' & friends' houses, favorite parks, schools, etc. It's so important to know who's out there as much as possible; you will be so shocked at how many there are if you haven't done this before. Check other addresses you've lived at too; you really won't believe it. And check your area often, the system is constantly being updated.
