 I would not, the risk is not something I would be willing to take with my child's life. People may say I am cruel or heartless, but I don't care, my children and their safety is my number one priority!

  • No, but if I know a child does have aids then my children will not be allowed to play with that child!

    Do your children typically have sex with other children?

  • Yes....As long as neither child has open cuts I would. But I do that now as it is...you never know...and I am not going to go around and ask anyone.

  • What an idiotic question, Aids is transferable by blood contact, you do realize children get cuts and scraps, play blood brother's and sister's that sort of thing right?

  • not cruel and heartless, but you are obviously ignorant on how HIV/AIDS is spread. Educate yourself.  And to answer your question. of coarse I would.

    I agree with you. I do that now with "regular" kids.  If there are any open cuts or uncovered wounds that could become open and bleeding i try to keep the kids separated.  It doesnt matter if the child has something or not since i am pretty sure it isnt their fault if they do have something.
