In a recent case a mother ran into a grocery store to buy one item. She left her young daughter in the car because the weather was very cold. Five minutes later she returned to find her little girl gone. In a matter of minutes she had been abducted.
A parent may load the car in front of the home and go back to fetch a baby. While he is carrying out the infant, the young child is taken. It only required three minutes for the first child to be taken away.
It happens faster than imaginable. In more than one case a little girl starts home from school with friends. She disappears somewhere between school and her home.
Every day seems to dawn on a new kidnapping. Older children can be given instructions on how to obstruct one of these perverts. Do not walk close to a strangers car. Some predators ask for directions and pretend they cannot hear the answer. If the child moves close enough, the stranger can reach out and grab him or her.
Second, if a stranger grabs them, make as much noise as possible to attract attention. Scream, kick and do anything to get away. Third, never listen to what a stranger tells them. The kindest looking woman or man may be a kidnapper.
A clever predator is skilled at fooling children. He might say he is sad because his dog is lost. He may ask the children to help in the search. A person the child met while grocery shopping with mom can talk him in to accepting a ride.
There are valuable precautions in place to keep children safe. None are released from school with anyone but the approved caretaker. A parent closes and locks windows at night.
Young girls abducted have been imprisoned for extended periods of time without discovery. They may have been chained inside a house. Some are threatened with a beating or other punishment if they attempt an escape.
Any witness to an abduction should call the police right away. Try to memorize or write down the license plate details. Make note of the color of the vehicle and what the abductor looks like.
The legal system seems to be favoring the predator in some cases. A sexual predator will repeat the offense in ninety-nine percent of all cases. A psychiatrist might be brought in to testify that he is rehabilitated.
The reality is that any gambler can place odds on how soon he will abduct and rape another innocent child. Parents and other caretakers may take all precautions to no avail. How many more little ones must be abducted before the laws are revised to prevent the rights of the pervert to supercede the rights of the innocent.
