[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My heart goes out to this family and little girl. All of us have taken our eyes off our children. This weekend we were at my son’s game with my daughter playing on the side of the field. I turned around and she was gone. Like nowhere in site. My first thought wasn’t to scream or call 911. I had a feeling of panic but my rational self said she was playing somewhere on the crowded sidelines. So I went looking all over and it was a good 15 min later when I found her sitting back where I had left. She saw a friend from her class and went to see her. They weren’t far but I didn’t see them. My point is, parents take their eyes off their kids and it is almost always okay. This time it wasn’t for this little one and my heart breaks for them. [/quote] The difference is that you were right there with your daughter and you did locate her within 15 minutes. I agree that sort of thing does happen. It happened to me once and the time I spent looking for my son was maybe 5 minutes - it felt like an eternity. The panic was building when I suddenly saw him thank God. Dulce may have been gone for 10 or 15 minutes before her mother even started to look for her and by the time she actually called the cops her daughter had been gone for an hour or more. I'm not going to beat that 19 year old mother up. She used some very poor judgement but she is not responsible for a stranger abducting her child. [/quote]
