Child Abduction Awareness Is Promoted On Television And Milk Cartons

By Nora Jennings


There have been so many children taken that it seems impossible that anyone could be unaware of the danger. Every day a little one is taken from a seemingly safe place. It seems useful to take in all the news stories because child abduction awareness can make some of these horrendous kidnappings impossible.

One case was reported where a parent left a little girl in the car while going in to a convenience store. It was cold and he did not want her to leave the warm car. Although gone only five minutes, it was enough time for a pervert to take advantage of the opportunity. The car door was open and the little girl gone.

Parents routinely leave a child in the car while they run in to carry out a baby in his portable car seat. The car is in their own driveway, just feet away from the house. Still, it only takes a minute for an opportunistic pervert to take advantage of the situation.

It can happen just that fast. In some instances a boy leaves school to walk home with a group of friends. He vanishes between the school and the 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.

They are told to make all the noise they can if a stranger grabs them. Kick, scream or bite to make him release them. Never believe anything a stranger says to them. A kind lady or a small, frail man may try to carry them off.

However, the truth is that children do not always listen to advice. If a stranger asks them to help find a lost kitten, they will be concerned and try to help. An acquaintance they have met while with a parent may offer a ride home.

Precautions are taken. Small children cannot be released from school unless the approved parent or caretaker picks them up. Bedroom windows are closed and locked at night.

Recently, women who were abducted as girls have managed to escape their captors. Some spent a decade as a virtual prisoner of the predator. If they tried to escape he may have threatened to kill their parents or beaten them severely.

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.
