What she said was, "Why do parents worry about the safety of their child but not worry about the safety of others from their child?" It's funny but true.
Is it because of the news we hear? (Yes. All dangers are broadcasted nowadays to raise awareness~) And because of these news, they believe that strangers are not trustworthy (is trust given or earned?)?
Is it because they are confident that their child will not do anything wrong? Is it because they know that they have planted good manners to their child?
Well, I am sure that current news broadcasts play a big role on why parents worry about their child. Most of the things broadcasted on television, radio, and newspapers are all about hazardous things.
And whenever their child is far from their parents, for sure, you would think that people have evil thoughts against someone. You know, when you're in a public place, it is inevitable for people to judge you by your looks (or how you treat them, even if you're a stranger). I admit that most of the time, a thought enters my mind: this person may be planning about getting my things, something like that.
On the other hand, it is very normal for parents to worry about their child. Look, it's their child. They can't do anything to change that (this may sound negative for you HAHA). Second, yeah, they may be confident that you won't do anything (except for unplanned ones) wrong because they know they taught you and raised you well. That means they trust you! But remember, parents, it's still up to your child if s/he will follow you.
It is normal to worry about your child's safety from others. But do not forget to worry what your child will do to others. :)
