Unfortunately, I think it really has a lot to do with outwardly, superficial, physical appearance. If a parent can construe your "look" as "sketchy," then they're going to be more hesitant. It's a tough situation. Parents are extremely protective.

i get this too.
i just borrow kids for a few minutes at a time... then it's time to return them back to their parents safe and unharmed and a reminder to me to not have my own kids.
