Well, I don't suppose ANY of us'd like the stigma of child abuse attached to us. It's one of the most reviled acts there is, and with Cliff being so popular over the decades, if there was a whiff of truth in it which got out, he'd be finished.
You must've led an incredibly sheltered life then! Didn't your parents warn you about not talking to, or going anywhere with strangers? If so, why do you think that was?
Same here T. I was never alone, and often with groups of friends who were a bit older than myself, so I considered myself protected, BUT, my parents were keen to make sure that we understood about possible dangers, and because of it, our wariness gave us a strong sense of self-preservation when meeting strangers or being exposed to new situations.
Blimey, not yet T!! The eldest was 18 this year. The youngest's 17 in November. I don't really want them to get married as young as I did, but at the same time, I hope to be a grandparent one day.
