My aim in this thread is to spread awareness- apologies if it annoys anyone.
In the last few years we have had at least 4 attempted abductions of kids from local schools (‘naice area’). Our school sent out alerts to let everyone know. There were various men in vans attempting to grab kids and two children that we know well narrowly escaped being dragged into a car just around the corner from our house last year and were really traumatised.
Then earlier today I saw the headline about the Line of Duty actresses’ son who nearly got abducted yesterday in Beckenham. He was 11 and walking home from school.
All of these events have made me very concerned about letting my kids walk home alone.
I’m also wondering why these attempted abductions don’t get more press attention so that others are more aware.

AIBU?
To think there are probably more attempted abductions of kids than we think?
