...they do not become involved with it."=...they do not become involved in it."? If I substitute 'in' for 'with' in the following sentence, does it still mean the same thing? "If someone stays aloof from something, they do not become involved with it."

Well Amy. The thing is, I've heard people only say "involved in it" and rarely "involved with it" But again "involved with" could be correct(or more usual) in certain sentences. Here are some examples that could help you out. (John is involved with Julia in a relationship! Tom is involved in a charity. don't get involved in this discussion, Peter! Do you want to be involved in this = do you want to take part at this. Is this project involved with Exam = does this project have something to do with the exam? I'm involved with her = I'm in a relationship with her. Al is involved in the team. = Al is part of team. Al is involved with the team = Al works with team/ has something to do with the team! I hope that helps. Bye :-)
