How would you feel if a random old guy walked up to your 2 year old son in the mall and handed him a teddy bear? Part of me feels bad that, even though it was probably just a nice act by a guy who sees us mall walking every day, I can't suppress my "Okay, you're a creep" instinct. I don't want to be one of those paranoid, over-protective parents, yet at the same time I know people have a huge capacity to suck. So I just don't know how to feel.
Parenthood re-wires the human brain in such strange ways.
