That’s how you took…

On the basis of the comment you replied to, of course I did. I said nothing to warrant that and it took me by surprise. All I said was those parents are probably the majority. Fair enough that you disagreed, but that last line wasn’t necessary at all. That by the way was where I mistook you for OP.

already creeped out by people like you

You don’t know me, as I don’t know you. That’s part of why I apologised to you for my assumptions. I based those on the way you were replying to me.

for a statement of my personal stance

So, you still think I’m untrustworthy around minors, is that what you’re saying? I don’t think that of you. That matters here because others see what we post. Nothing I’ve said warrants that.

Stop using strangers statements…

Not sure where I did this, but anyway.

not seeing you as an exception to that

the fact you would apparently expect

Well it’s not offered so it doesn’t matter, but no, it was asked with no more intent than mine was given…politeness and mutual respect, despite the fact you’ve admitted you sought to provoke.

I don’t expect it and I don’t want it, now. These kinds of insults are pretty shithouse which, along with the fact I value this space and the people in it, I gave mine.
