Scenario

When community consequences meet parental protection instincts

My community expelled someone for abuse but I keep seeing them at my kids' school events and I don't know if I have the right to tell other parents why I'm uncomfortable or if that violates their privacy.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The tension between respecting someone's right to redemption and protecting children from potential harm forces impossible calculations about risk, forgiveness, and parental responsibility.
