BUT, if you are not CONVINCED your children will be safe and cared for properly, then NEVER EVER EVER send them into that situation. I would never care what other people thought. If my daughter wants to go somewhere, and I have to WORRY about her, all bets are off. I don't care if it's with Dad, Grandma, or Jesus Christ himself. I would not send my child into a situation I was not 100% comfortable with.

Yeah, there's also a fine line between protecting your children and not letting them do anything at all out of risk they may get hurt.
If you won't let your kids do anything because you're not 100% sure they'll be safe, lock 'em up in the house and home school them. The worrying never ends.
You worry when they go to school, when they ride their bikes, when they go swimming, when someone else is driving them around....
You take the best precautions you can and let them live. Otherwise you're kids will grow up sheltered and entirely unprepared for the real world. When they get older, they have to be able to make their own mistakes and learn from them.
They're kind of like people that way.
