Society always on the alert for wrongdoing

At the baseball, a flyball goes over the building and keeps going. I am about 200 meters from the general vicinity of where the ball ended up.
A couple of people look for the ball and can not find it. So I go over to where I thought it might be.
There is a young boy, not 10 years of age with a baseball and bat. I ask him if it was his ball and he said yes.
As I am walking back to my seat I see a lady walking towards me, saying to her son, "Come back here where I can see you"
She looks askance at me and I say, "I was looking for the game ball and asked the boy if it was his ball"
She said, "It is his ball"
I made this post because I left myself open to suspicion regarding single men and young children.
There is always a possibility that the mother would call the police and tell them there is a suspicion guy walking around with young children around.
Note to self - Never speak to young children when there are no adults present.
This is the world single men live in. Suspicion abounds all around.

I think a lot of men feel like you do. My bf got invited to his friend's grandkids (twins).birthday party. He's been friends with these people for a long time. I was working so couldn't go with him. He didn't go, as he said he'd feel very uncomfortable

Too many people live their lives virtually and have little connection to reality. Crime levels across the rich world are a fraction of what they were 20 years ago and the likelihood of a child being assaulted in a public area is vanishingly small.

I wish parents would be as vigilant as to what their children get up to online.

Not the whole world.
What would you have done if he said it wasn't his ball?

@JamesBugman Probably ask him to take it to the referee?
I would not have asked him to give it to me.
Yup.
Stranger Danger? Brainrot.

@Amyrakunejo The reality here, if the police were called I would have been interrogated, might even have taken to the cop shop for the grilling.
Not a nice thought.
