Does anyone ever use the noun "PERVERT" anymore???? A PERVERT is what this guy is and the other compromised "adults" around him knew it......but when are people going to tell KIDS what kind of pervert a guy is known to be??
When we were kids, people would say "Stay away from that pervert over there." Twenty years ago, preschool and elementary school teachers and policemen would talk to kids about "Inappropriate Touching" and "Strangers". That was getting vague enough....but now this society is so hung up on "not racially profiling" and "not being judgemental" that it is essentially telling kids not to make a judgement between good and bad. Pop culture and Junk Psychology has made so many excuses for PERVERSION and PERVERTS that kids have become desensitized to the evil that perverts like Sandusky can inflict on them.
When language and vocabulary become so watered down and weakened, so do the concepts and judgement calls behind those words.
Look at the definition below. When was the last time you heard a person use the example sentence it contains?
