PSA: possible pedophile alert in RBS

I received the following alert, and felt it is important to share..

-----------

Please parents, use good judgment and teach your children to use it as well!!


At approximately 4:00 pm on Wednesday, my 8 year old daughter and a friend were walking from the friend's house (Maor-Dolev area) to Dil Vezol on Dolev and they passed by an area that I will describe as" behind Dil Vezol".  It was  a parking lot.  I'm not sure if it's behind 60 Dolev exactly, but it's the area between Dil Vezol and Maor.  

A mature man approached them and asked them if they would like to blow the shofar.  He had a shofar with him.  THANK G-D the girls said "No," and ran away.  

My daughter has been coached that adults must never approach children.  Not to ask for help and not to offer services, so I guess this incident raised a red flag for her and she knew enough to run away.

Whether or not you feel that this situation is threatening, I wanted to let it be known that people should beware of that area, as well as warn their children about adults who approach them for any reason.

Unfortunately it is necessary even in our society that adults who are not personally known to the child, should not approach children this way and adults - even safe ones, who do not adhere to this principle are actually endangering children by confusing them and causing them to let down their guard towards predators. 

The sad reality is that there are pedophiles in our area of RBS.  Some are known to the police, others are not.  Some are involved in legal process, others are not.  

Please speak to your children
