Father Labeled "Pervert" For Taking Pics Of Own Kids In Park

[dgridley]

An outraged father of three enjoying a day out with his young sons in a U.K. park was branded a "pervert" by other parkgoers after he snapped photos of his own kids, the Daily Mail reported Tuesday.

"What is the world coming to when anybody seen with a camera is assumed to be doing things that they should not?" Crutchley asked in an interview with the Daily Mail. "This parental paranoia is getting completely out of hand. I was so shocked."

Ok, I know this is originally from the Daily Mail but assuming it's true, what IS the world coming to?

My guess is they didnt like the angle of the shoot.

This stems from the consant warnings on news programs to be on the alert.

You have to admit that people have every right to be worried especially with the degree of incidents of child kidnapping and etc. People have every right to be worried and to take extra precaution.

It would be another story if the father was accosted or jailed or something more extreme though.

I don`t understand Brits. They are so conservative in England, but when they go out then it is totally different story.

Now thats a sweeping statement about us brits :lol: Also remember England is just part of Britain, conservative wouldn't be my view of most Brits. I wonder if people get the british stereotype from Mary Poppins or similar films :hehe:

Good point but its not like this is isolated to Britain alone.

Hulk Hogan attended a burlesque show where his DAUGHTER was the headliner.
What's the big deal?

Sorry, I didn`t mean to offense anyone with my post. You are probably right, these days “to be conservative” is only old stereotype for people from GB. Me, as a Serb am very familiar with stereotypes. But you have to admit that it is better “to be conservative” then “to be mass murderers, rapists and sick bastards”

Yes, as a kid I loved to read books about Mary Poppins, but my favorite was another Brit Sherlock Holmes

what IS the world coming to?

This is questions which make you go “hm” though.
