Warning to All Parents



Something that has become all to clear in the last month, across the country, attempted abductions of children are up. I have to believe this is indirectly tied to:

-The mostly successful kidnapping pulled off by Phillip Garrido where he successfully kidnapped Jaycee Lee Dugard and held her for nearly two decades;
-The popularity of Dateline's To Catch a Predator series of investigating shows where they lure people to homes thinking they will have sex with underage girls;
-Several high profile missing, presumed abductions of, children without a single arrest in the last year.

While 99.9% of us find this repulsive, there is that small percentage of sickos who are inspired by this success and become inspired to act on their sick impulses.

I'm afraid this is not going to lessen in the coming months and years. In the area I live in, the amount of suspicious persons (strangers) speaking to children is on the rise according to local police- many of these sickos are in the beginning stages of working up to an actual abduction. On the local news almost every night there are reports of attempted abductions, and this is occurring across the country.

If you are a parent please take a moment and click on this link of past posts that are helpful in spotting pedophiles and pay closer attention to protecting our kids.◦
