Would you let PLO activists babysit?

With the latest news of Rashid Khalidi and his wife babysitting Obama's children, I am very concerned.
Would you let them watch your children?
What beliefs might they teach them?
Our children are our most precious assets, we should always protect them from radical people.
Does this information mean that Obama would let PLO activists teach our children?
I feel if he is friends with all these radicals and now PLO members if he trusts them to protect and watch his children will he also trust them to take care of our country needs?
Will they be involved in our law making? Teachers at our schools?
Handling our economy?
This latest news lets me know exactly where Obama's priorities seem to be and who they are with.
