The rules are simple:

- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Have you forgotten that schools traditionally where run by the church where priests and nuns where the effective teachers.
There is also zero evidence that modern teachers who tend to have their own families, are not sexually repressed have a worse problem.
If you want to talk about roles that attract predators, try youth camps of all kinds where kids sleep on location and there generally way less structural oversight.
This post is about youth pastors - so I assume it's Protestant. Protestants don't face the same sexual repression as Roman Catholic Priests
The priests and nuns that where originally running the education system where of the repressed catholic kind.
Anyway my point isn’t to assume pastors are pedos it was to refute your comment that assumes teachers are more likely to be pedos while in reality schools are often one of the better protection systems kids have against abuse.
