Child abduction

Child abduction is when a person, often a stranger or even someone the child knows like a family member, takes a child without the permission of the child's parent or guardian. It is very important to stay close to and always tell a trusted adult where you are going and who you are with. If someone makes you feel uncomfortable or tries to take you away, you should tell a trusted adult right away. If a child is taken, it is important to tell the police and give them as much information as possible about the person who took them or where they might have gone. It is very important to remember that not all strangers are bad, but it is always better to be safe and ask an adult for help if you feel uneasy.
