It seems the Predators
are getting smarter, changing tactics, getting more
aggressive and becoming more brazen in their
attempts to grab our children. Now I don't want to
set off alarms or create a panic, because that's not
going to accomplish anything.
This is just a update
for you, as a parent, to remember we can never let
down our guard and we MUST continuously talk to our
children to educate them and keep them safe.
Remember 10 years ago,
when the Predators started making "Block Parent"
signs, and posting them in their windows trolling
for innocent victims? Now we have a story that's
even more audacious.
A few days ago, we had a
adult try, and succeed in convincing a young
teenager that he was the teenagers long, lost
father, suddenly returned to become part of his
life. All of this happened at a local convenience
store where the teenager went to purchase a snack.
Fortunately a very intelligent clerk noticed what
was going on, and made the right decision to call
the RCMP, when he noticed the teenager leaving with
the man. The RCMP picked them both up within two
minutes.
The Predator isn't
related in any way.
The mother has never
seen him before.
The reason I wanted to
share this true story with you, is to remind you,
myself and all of the Street Smart Kidz friends that
we don't need to live in fear, but we do need to
remain forever vigilant!
Talk with your kids!
