Daily News Reports Increase Child Abduction Awareness

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.

There was the case of a mom running in to pick up one item at a convenience store in the middle of the day. It was cold so she left her six-year old daughter in the warm car. Yes, she was gone for less than five minutes. It was long enough for an opportunistic pervert to open the car door and disappear with the little girl.

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.

Abductions happen fast. Sometimes a little boy will walk home from school with friends every day. Then one day, between the school and the home, the little boy vanishes and no one saw it happen.

Children taken seem to grow in numbers. Those above a specific age are instructed on how to stay safe. They must not walk close to a strangers car to answer a question. Some kidnappers will ask directions and pretend they cannot hear the answer. A child is lured close enough to pull in the automobile.

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.

But, the smartest child under a certain age can be fooled. A stranger might look sad and ask them to help find a lost puppy. Someone they have seen while with a parent may convince the child to accept 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.

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.

Police should be called immediately upon witnessing an abduction. The witness should memorize as much of the license plate as possible. Try to recall any details about the abductor or his clothing.

The legal community bears a degree of responsibility in letting sexual predators out of prison to become repeat offenders. A psychiatrist may give testimony as to his rehabilitation. In truth, the rapist cannot be 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.
