As a parent we are always on guard of our children. As much as possible, we want to be beside them almost 24 hours a day. We even tend to over protect them. But if one day, as it commonly happens nowadays, someone got interest on your child and kdnap the innocent being? Maybe for ransom, for selling it to other individual, or child labor.

Hi Izathewzia, I dont have any children, but where I live, Im not sure what parents are protecting. I see so many young kids walking around by themselves, or left in cars with no adults. Children between the ages of 6 and 9. I think that is just too young to be left alone. But it happens. I really hate to see them in stores alone, they will go in with some money and be dependent on the cashier to tell them how much money they need to buty what it is they have. I know of a paticular woman who will send her 8 yr old to the store with her 4 yr old. They live a few blocks from the store, and I will see the kids walking up there together. Its a shame really. I would never let my kids be out of my site like that! Bay Lay Gray xx

That is scary! Hope the parents of those children realizes how difficult it is to loose their children.

I'm not a parent yet, but I would definitely be overprotective of my child. My mom was overprotective making sure I was safe, but let me have my space. With what's going on these days, you can't protect your children enough without throwing them in a bubble and keeping them in the house at all times, because there are always risks. You don't want to smother your children either because it may make them want to run away or do harsh things. So we need to do the best we can with what we have without going way over board.

Yes I do consider it. It has always been a worry of mine if somebody cam into my house and kidnapped my kids. Yes it is one of my fears, not a common thing in Australia though. I do try and protect them as much as I possibly can, I never let them out of my sight, they don;t go to puclic toilets on their own, lots of things I worry about.

From a been there done that view, IT IS THE SCARIEST THING a mother can face. Not knowing if your child is ok, hurt, alive... Without going into a lot of details, my children were kidnapped by my ex-abusive-jerk while I was out trying to get some help. I saw him drive off with the children from a neighboors house and I panicked but I was already on the line with 911 and the police were at my house in a matter of minutes. I was not allowed in my own home until they cleared it which took quite a while. My children were returned to me safe and sound but it wasn't without a lot of worry, threats and gambling back and forth with the idiot and the police. A few years later, there was a threat of kidnapping however the police got to the children first and everyone was OK. Unfortunately, many of these situations do not have happy endings. I am very grateful!
