Also, she was actually snatched from outside (if we're talking about the same case) because she hesitated to get into the vehicle with the perp.

Your advice to parents though is great and should be taken into consideration: let your child know that he/she is loved and that he/she can never disappoint you. Be open and honest with your child and tell them about the dangers of strangers.
