Marc Maron's audience

 A school board is receiving backlash from parents. These are parents of high school students who were not being protected from predators. Here is a video of a recent board meeting in St. Helens, OR:

These teenagers in St. Helens had predators teaching them, predators placed in positions of power over them, while attending school. These parents have every right to be angry. Children should be protected from predators at school.

A predator enters our US school districts every holiday season. I have young family members whose children have seen this video in their classrooms. Children have no idea how to spot predators. When adults are presented to children in schools, those adults are viewed as safe. No child understands what a 61 yr-old is thinking or doing. Who we allow to be seen as safe by our kids is our responsibility, not our our kids' responsibility. This is why those parents in St. Helens are angry. Predators were allowed access to their children, by a school board that has a lot to answer for.

If a student brings home a note for their parents to sign, so their child can see Marc Maron speak to a high school drama class in some US school district, those parents won't know Mr. Maron has spoken of his desire to have sex with teen girls for the past 35 years. Parents won't know how Marc Maron exposed his genitalia on set in Canada. That note they sign may include an NDA, which parents may not understand, either.  

Our children are not being protected from predators. Whether it's Warren Jeffs arranging child marriages, or Marc Maron getting close to and grooming girls and claiming it is them who are "enamored" with him, it is all the same predatory behavior.  

When adult men obsess for decades about having sex with teen girls, they should not be presented as safe to children.
