[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I 100% do not worry about stranger abductions. You said you know how very rare they are, so I assume you know the statistics. There are no real "strangers" in our house. They certainly aren't a "danger". We make sure our kids know that ONLY mom and dad or grandparents, or someone they KNOW, would be picking them up. Plain and simple. We would never recruit a person they don't know, to pick them up. Ever. Under no circumstances. If someone says otherwise, run home to a neighbor for help, or run to someone in a store and ask for help. Run to a pedestrian and ask for help. But never will a person we don't know come for you. [/quote] About 1-2x /year on our Bethesda neighborhood listserve, we have a report of a stranger trying to convince a kid to get in a car. I don't think it's rare. There was a thread a while back on which many adult DCUM users recalled encountering a predator that was a stranger. [/quote]
