Thanks for that link (well, thanks for giving me nightmares, but you know what I mean). I found one of the comments there quite chilling:

The huge effort to integrate women into the world of work is matched by the huge effort to block men's integration into the world of children.

In the end, the only safe option for men will be to do what the bricklayer did - do not approach a child,
no matter what. I've read the same kind of story (as the man who rescued the kids from the car) in the context of a child lost at a mall and another walking around looking lost in a supermarket - in both cases, the good Samaritans suffered humiliating experiences due to the ungrateful (and negligent) mothers instantly calling the cops). They should realize that all they are doing is creating a society where no man will ever attempt to help their child in times of need. Good job shooting themselves in the foot!
