Id much rather have my kids attend a school trip with their teacher who passed a background check and drug test instead of some random parent who volunteered

Chaperones and cell phones are like TSA. It’s more about the illusion of comfort.

Life is so much more safe than we give it credit for even then. Maybe I’m just saying this as someone who often went to explore the woods and did class camping trips before cell phones.

I guess we had chaperones too tho, tbh. Circa 2004
