Jamaal Greear's blog ::International Parental Child Abduction: A Guidebook for Left-Behind Parents










As               someone               who               suffered               through               the               trauma               of               being               abducted               as               a               young               child,               I               know               how               horrific               it               can               be               firsthand.

I               know               what               kind               of               long-lasting               impact               a               childhood               abduction               can               have               on               the               victim.

Children               who               are               abducted,               if               they               return               home,               often               experience               long-lasting               affects               from               the               abduction.

These               affects               can               last               a               few               weeks,               a               few               months,               several               years               and               continue               on               even               into               adulthood.

Of               the               69,000               children               abducted               annually               82%               of               these               abductions               are               carried               out               by               family               members,               typically               a               mother,               father               or               other               relative               in               violation               of               a               custody               order.

8%               of               children               who               fall               victim               to               family               abduction               experience               some               type               of               physical               harm,               while               7%               are               sexually               assaulted.

Nearly               a               fifth               of               children               who               are               a               victim               of               family               abduction               experience               some               type               of               mental               harm.
               Non-family               member               abductions               account               for               18%               (approximately               12,000)               of               abductions,               and               of               these               12,000               non-family               member               abductions,               37%               are               abducted               by               a               complete               stranger.

These               non-family               member               abductions               are               often               referred               to               as               "stereotypical               kidnappings."               40%               of               children               who               are               the               victims               of               stereotypical               kidnappings               are               murdered,               three               quarters               of               which               are               usually               murdered               within               three               hours               of               the               abduction.
               These               statistics               are               pretty               frightening.

Even               among               family               members,               friends,               and               caretakers,               your               child               may               not               be               safe.

In               fact,               your               child               is               more               likely               to               be               abducted               by               a               relative,               or               someone               you               know               than               they               are               to               be               taken               by               a               stranger.

Thankfully,               however,               the               rates               of               survival               for               children               taken               by               family               members               and               caretakers               are               much               higher               than               those               taken               by               non-family               members.
               In               a               study               conducted               by               pediatricians,               nearly               three               quarters               of               parents               feared               their               child               could               be               abducted.

Child               abduction               is               a               real               threat,               and               although               it's               not               100%               preventable,               there               are               many               steps               that               parents               can               take               to               help               keep               prevent               their               child               from               being               abducted,               as               well               as               help               locate               their               child               should               they               be               abducted.
               Have               Your               Child               Photographed               
               One               of               the               most               important               things               you               can               do               is               get               good,               ID-card               style               photographs               of               your               child               every               six               months.

Children               grow               and               change               quickly,               so               it's               important               to               update               these               often.

Many               places               offer               "passport               photos"               for               a               small               fee,               and               these               photos               are               perfect               for               identification,               should               your               child               be               abducted.

You               may               also               opt               to               have               a               state               identification               card               made               for               your               child               at               the               DMV.

This               can               be               helpful               as               well,               since               your               child's               weight,               birth               date,               height               and               photograph               are               all               entered               into               the               database               and               could               be               used               by               the               authorities               later,               should               your               child               go               missing.
               Have               Your               Child               Fingerprinted               
               Many               police               stations               across               the               country               offer               fingerprinting               for               children               and               if               your               police               station               doesn't,               they               may               be               able               to               point               you               in               the               direction               of               someone               who               can               do               it.

Additionally,               there               are               at-home               fingerprinting               kits               that               can               be               ordered               online               and               done               at               home.

Parents               then               keep               the               cards               with               the               prints               in               their               files,               should               they               ever               need               them.

You               may               also               print               your               own               free               kit               to               fingerprint               your               child.
               Get               Regular               Medical               &               Dental               Care               for               Your               Child               
               Regular               medical               and               dental               care               for               your               child               can               be               invaluable               in               helping               to               locate               your               child               should               they               be               abducted.

Physicians               keep               very               detailed               notes               regarding               your               child's               health,               weight,               height               and               other               issues,               and               dentists               often               take               x-rays               and               impressions               of               the               jaw,               which               can               be               later               used               to               identify               a               child               who               may               have               been               killed.
               Choose               Caregivers               Carefully               
               Should               you               decide               to               utilize               the               services               of               a               childcare               provider               or               babysitter,               do               so               carefully.

Check               any               and               all               references               provided.

Request               that               applicants               submit               to               a               criminal               background               check               and               fingerprinting.

Trust               your               gut.

If               you               don't               feel               entirely               comfortable               with               the               person,               there               might               be               a               good               reason               why.
               Create               A               Code               Word               
               If               your               child               is               old               enough,               talk               to               them               about               a               code               word.

Teach               them               a               special,               unique               code               word               and               let               them               know               to               never               go               with               anyone,               even               if               they               say               that               you               or               the               child's               other               primary               caregiver               sent               them,               unless               they               are               able               to               tell               the               child               the               code               word.

Your               child's               best               chance               of               escaping,               is               before               they               are               even               taken.

Having               a               code               word               will               help               put               your               child               on               the               defensive,               and               could               save               their               life.
               Keep               Windows               &               Doors               Locked               
               Even               when               you               are               home,               it's               important               to               keep               your               windows               and               doors               locked.

An               abductor               can               get               into               your               home               if               they               aren't,               and               it               only               takes               minutes               for               an               abduction               to               occur.

Even               if               you're               sitting               in               the               living               room,               an               abductor               could               take               your               child               from               the               next               room               in               a               matter               of               moments.
               Talk               to               Your               Child               About               Strangers               
               If               your               child               is               old               enough               to               converse               and               discuss               things               and               ideas,               even               in               the               most               basic               sense,               talk               to               them               about               kidnapping.

Let               them               know               that               they               are               never               to               go               with               a               stranger,               no               matter               what               they               say,               or               how               much               fun               it               might               seem.

Let               them               know               that               it's               possible               a               bad               person               could               trick               them               by               asking               for               help               looking               for               their               dog               or               cat,               or               offering               them               a               cookie               or               bike               in               the               back               of               their               vehicle.

Let               them               know               that               they               should               never               believe               these               people               and               shouldn't               talk               to               them.
               Prepare               Your               Child               
               In               a               child               who               is               old               enough               to               understand,               make               sure               they               know               that               should               they               find               themselves               being               taken               or               abducted               from               a               public               place,               they               need               to               scream               and               fight.

Your               child's               best               chance               of               escape               is               when               they               are               first               taken.

If               your               child               is               taken               from               a               public               place,               screaming,               kicking,               biting,               and               flailing               around               may               attract               the               attention               of               people               nearby,               who               may               aid               in               your               child's               rescue.

It               may               also               spook               the               abductor,               causing               him               or               her               to               abandon               their               plan               and               flee.
               Never               Leave               Young               Children               Unsupervised               
               Do               not               leave               your               children               alone               in               the               car,               or               in               a               stroller,               even               for               a               few               minutes.

Don't               allow               young               children               to               play               outside               alone,               even               in               a               fenced               in               yard.

An               abductor               could               easily               lift               a               child               over               the               fence               and               be               gone               before               you               even               notice.
               Teach               Your               Child               Numbers               
               If               your               child               is               old               enough,               make               sure               they               have               their               mom               and               dad's               phone               numbers               memorized.

You               may               want               to               make               sure               they               know               a               trusted               friend,               or               relative               such               as               a               grandparent's               number               as               well.
               Educate               Your               Child               About               Law               Enforcement               
               Beginning               at               a               young               age,               teach               your               child               about               policemen               and               firefighters.

Let               your               child               know               these               people               are               "good               guys"               and               are               here               to               help               you.

Make               sure               they               understand               that               if               something               ever               goes               wrong,               or               if               they're               lost               or               taken               and               see               an               officer,               to               tell               the               officer               what's               going               on.

Teach               them               how               to               dial               9-1-1               to               contact               an               officer               who               can               help               them,               and               make               sure               they               understand               what               situations               they               should               and               shouldn't               call               9-1-1               in.

You               may               consider               scheduling               a               time               to               take               your               child               to               a               local               police               station               and               introduce               them               to               some               officers               so               that               they               know               what               the               uniforms               look               like,               and               do               not               fear               talking               to               an               officer               should               they               ever               be               in               a               situation               they               need               to.
               Teach               Your               Child               About               Vehicles               
               Make               sure               your               child               knows               who               they               can               and               cannot               ride               in               a               vehicle               with.

Teach               your               child               that,               should               a               vehicle               pull               up               along               side               of               them,               they               should               keep               as               much               distance               between               themselves               and               the               vehicle,               even               if               the               person               looks               confused               or               lost,               to               prevent               themselves               from               being               grabbed               and               pulled               into               the               car.
