I believe a lot of this is just made up stories. Maybe the 1st or 2nd may have happened but all of a sudden you got all these different kids with "attempts". Please get real, cause if someone was really after these kids don't you think by now that at least one would have actually been abducted . If these grown people wanted these kids they could really get them. I really doubt every last one of them was able to run away. KIDS THIS NOTHING TO JOKE AROUND WITH. Have you ever heard of the story about the boy who cried wolf?

Whats up with the newspaper that they are refusing to put descriptions in their stories? That's almost criminal in and of itself. Anyway, these thugs should remember all these kids have phones that TAKE PICTURES. One of these times (if not already) pics of these thugs are gonna get splashed all over the computer screens - won't that be heart warming. And it may not be just on the TV web site - remember these kids have FACEBOOK and MYSPACE! These thugs mugs could appear anywhere and some mad parents will get a view of who is trying to steal their kids.
