The PC brigade are on the loose again.
School dinner lady, Pat Lavery, handed a boy a biscuit after he asked for one. The boy is a relative.
Subsequently, Mrs Lavery was told that under the Child Protection Act she could be seen to be grooming the child. Over a period of two years or so the situation escalated to the point that she was informed she could lose her job.
All because she gave a boy a biscuit.
Mrs Lavery’s experience is yet another example of common sense being thrown out the window. Full story here
Taking things to an illogical extreme, at the end of this month there will be thousands of children accepting sweets and other treats from thousands of strangers.
Is it possible that I could be accused of grooming young children if I respond to the Trick or Treat requests on my door step ?
