Get help! It isn't normal! Stay away from kids! Thanks for the suggestions, but...

 


Things you're overlooking when you yell "get help"...

~ You don't know what help is available
~ You don't know what it consists of
~ You don't know what it can and can't achieve
~ You don't know who is in need of it and to what extent
~ You don't know who you're talking to


Things you're overlooking when you yell, "it isn't normal!"...

~ Normal isn't a synonym for "morally OK"
~ If someone isn't normal, pointing that out adds nothing to solving anyone's problems.
~ Everyone has a normality, and those can include things that aren't normal for others


Things you're overlooking when you yell, "stay away from kids!"

~ There are kids everywhere
~ Many MAPs are themselves still kids and at school
~ Many people have kid relatives
~ The important thing is that you behave responsibly if you're going to encounter them

Kincaid thinks we should go back to hugging kids and playing with them without worrying obsessively. But he then adds, curiously, "if you find yourself getting too excited, going too far, wanting to incite or not to stop — then stop."

I'm sure many in society would be very uncomfortable that I continue to engage with people who seem at risk of offending.
