THOUGHT I was bringing my children up in a lovely area. Lived here most of my life. Beautiful countryside, very small town, very expensive housing market, outstanding schools, low crime rate (so I thought). Turns out.. there have recently been three convictions from people on my road committing horrific crimes. One couple killed their 8 week old baby, one man raped his 6yr old step daughter and another man convicted for being a paedophile and grooming girls online. All have just gone to prison to start lengthy sentences. Does this happen this regularly in all streets and towns!? Am I not up to date with how times have changed?
Wanting to move area. Was I stupid to think that things like this didn’t happen in places like here?
To add.. I would love to live closer to the sea but thought I was doing the best by my children to raise them in a nice area!
