And I disagree.

..so far as paedophiles and child abusers are concerned, I doubt her views would be even taken seriously, I hope they wouldn't but in the case of the grandfather, it would appear without knowing the exact facts that he was convicted of statuary rape a long time ago perhaps... and if that's the case and having been convicted of it, and now looking to care for his grandchildren, I do think that's something that should/could be looked at...so I do see her 'blanket scenario' from that point of view...
