Let's not overblown the issue... The kid is more likely to be murdered by a car and driver getting away than molested.
It seems a lot of times kids are molested parents are in on it or too stupid to see it. Randos molesting kids seems to be rare. It is people in positions of authority who do it most of the time.
As disgusting as that is.
You need plausible deniability and proximity to get away with abuse of kids, and parents have the most of both.
However, I was groped thousands of times as a kid in lines by strangers. And I mean THOUSANDS. To this day I do not like strangers standing behind me.
I was almost nearly abducted off the street as a kid.
So yes, strangers can still be an issue, even if parents and other people with more proximity are more often the bigger issue.
