Banned for being single

Iam64 - single adults with children are allowed in, as are two adults together, its just a single person who is banned, which doesn't make sense. What is to stop two pedophiles attending the park together?

x posted with vampire and glamma - be very interested to see what others think. What about single parents/carers, are they to be banned as well. That would surely hit some kind of equality legislation.

I read this news as well sun seeker and felt it was over the top. On reflection though, I wonder if the park, or other parks in that chain, have been targeted by pedophiles. There is ample evidence that these (mostly) men target children's play areas, swimming pools, leisure parks etc etc. Perhaps the park is trying to ensure it can't be sued in the event of an incident. The idea of banning single people from one are of a park would be difficult to enforce.

It's depressing that so many men (and some women) are sexually aroused by, and attracted to children. The information coming to light about the huge numbers of people viewing pornographic images of children on line tends to confirm the incidence is higher than we'd feared.

I can understand the exclusion from a play area also but total ban is way over the top,so your partner is unwell and you want to watch an exhibition of falconry and you are not allowed to go on your own or you fancy a meal etc or a glass of wine and cannot be admitted because you are on your own ?

That is totally wrong. It suggests that all single people are a danger to children. Where does the ban stop? I was single ...not allowed. Married....allowed. Single again.....not allowed. Married again.....allowed. I'm the same person whether married or single.

Does this company think that only single men and women abuse children?

Someone needs to make a formal complaint about them to the equal opportunities commission.
