So sad, Bonnie! I never understand actions of malice and evil, what
is the problem with people. I have no answer!

A well written poem Bonnie,all too often I hear these type of stories and its sad that people would take advantage of children by using their innocence to manipulate them to do what they want them to do.Its a sad reality.Sometimes I asked myself why do these adults want to hurt or kidnapped children.What's the point.This is why parents should ALWAYS keep an eye on their children.I don't care if a child is in the backyard,they should keep a very very close eye on them because unfortunately there are a lot of sick and crazy people in this world who represents the lowest form of human S***

I am glad you wrote this poem as parents should be aware of where their children is at all times.I keep asking myself the same questions as to why people would do these things and why this world is a more scarier place than ever before and I can never find the answers too.take care Bonnie

Love and Hugs

well expressed message of such pain and heartbreak

That is so sad. Many kids are so trusting and it's sick how some adults prey on their naivette.

It is a sad and real fact of life we can no longer leave our children unattended not even in our own neighbourhoods and in some cases our own yards. I truly fear of what is to come for our little ones.

Hello Bonnie,

Truly heartbreaking to say the least . . .


Best wishes,

And my heart weeps with this. Staying far away from family I alwasys think of them and the title of this poem reminds me of what my little five year old daughter used to say: "Dad I´m a big girl now. I can assist my mom in the kitchen or sweep the rooms". I was hesitating to call them but now,after reading this poem, the balance has shifted to their side. I call them now.

Sobering write!

Sadly, often it is the parents that are blamed when a child is abducted...as if the parents don't place enough "if only" guilt upon their own heads.
That being said... it is a scary world out there and one that I don't feel secure in letting my children spend time alone outside. It is a sad comment on society. If only there was a way to stop it...

Sometimes the parents have to make clear what "outside" means. Does "Outside" means outside of the kitchen, or outside of that room they're in. Children are not speech interpreter, they only know what "outside" means to them. This is just sad!

I often played outside in the street too when I was a little girl when I was back in my hometown Hong Kong. but we didn't have the wierdos like they do nowadays that kidnap children for their pleasures. Parents have to be careful what they say to children, because children might take it the wrong way.

Beyond sad and makes me feel beyond anger.

A public burning in the stake comes to mind, they did it in Salem with innocents, so, why can't do it with those that Jesus said molested one of His children, to put a mill stone around their necks and throw them in a well?

PS: if a new generation of them come forward to take their place shouldn't we go buy more shovels to dig more wells?

Well, we can't watch our kids 24/7/365, and the people that take children are not the kind that will just stop, not even after jail terms, still they re-commit...I don't know how to stop it, as if we were to put all child molestors to death, there would be a whole new generation of them to take their place...I have no idea what the answer is...Ed

Yes, Bonnie, we must find a way. Today. -gene.
