When talking to my own kids, I have been very clear that they should not even let a stranger get close to them as they may try to use drugs or chemicals to stun them or knock them out. I’ve also had to teach them that no matter what, they never, ever go with someone and that they must fight no matter what. The majority of victims in these cases who are abducted from a crime scene are murdered. Teaching kids to fight goes against how we normally teach them to respond, but this is one time where it is appropriate. Even a child facing a larger adult can scratch, bite, kick, punch, scream and even claw or poke at the suspect’s eyes. Anything goes to attract attention and to escape.
