Just in case anyone doesn’t believe this, I live in the same town as her and a lady at the laundry mat told me she remembered seeing it on the news. SO THUR
Anyone who said "I wish my dad would take me to amusement park" hasn't seen the loads of stories about parents who killed their kid but gave them the best last day of their lives.
@@sweetdeception5185 at first, I thought you were telling her that you really like her and that she's cute😂😂but that's her username. Edit: Ooh thanks for the likes lol
I was kidnapped by my biological, heroin addicted mother when i was like 4, luckily i don’t remember it but i do know my dad was an absolute boss (he jumped in and out of a moving car to get me back)
cayden Your Dad is a legend! I mean, of course you’d have to do something in that situation but still. I’m glad you’re ok. Some kidnapping stories don’t end up well so it’s nice hearing that people got through it.
I started crying when she said the police officer was trying to rip her out of the car. It makes me wonder if he's been in similar situations with bad endings before enough that he was panicking.
She's gorgeous. Seriously, I'm so jelly. Even her makeup is Oscar worthy - and I look like the joker when I come within 10 feet of an eye shadow palette...
My aunt was almost kidnapped when she was around 7 in a toy store. she started fighting the man so he let go and ran off she said YEARSS later like 30 years later she was at a store and saw the man! recognized him and started having a panic attack
my aunt did too she was walking home when she was younger and a man followed her through every sidewalk but then she knocked on a door to make it seem like she lived there
Omg I was on the verge of tears then my toiliet decides to keep running and I thought I left the faucet still running so my moment of happy crying was ruined
Alicia-Cristina Makar Her name was changed for her safety and why would she make this up? That would be really messed up especially about a sensitive topic like kidnapping.
@Alicia-Cristina Makar also if the Amber alert said a different name, she would know and I doubt she would make up a whole story to expose herself by putting a different name in the bio
I feel so bad for Natalia, she is so sweet and such a kind person. But all these horrible things happen to her, and she doesn't deserve it. She is such an angel and she went through such hard ships. Lots of love and Care sent your way Nat. :)
Shay Wandro yea I was just trying to put the yin and yang together in my head by bringing the left side up and the right side down, if you know what I am talking about.
I was kidnapped by my dad TWICE once when I was 2years old and the second time when I was 8 and nearly flew out of the country with me....so not fun and my dad is a bipolar abusive piece of shit
I thought the comment that I wrote at the time was funny and I thought nothing of it I was also in an accident due to someone else’s irresponsible driving where I spun a out across 3 lanes of traffic and it was extremely traumatic so I make jokes about traffic violations like running a red light bc usually that stuff doesn’t really get reported but I understand how this was taken out of context and I’m so sorry I offended anyone I am deleting the comment in hopes it does not hurt anyone else❤️
Kelly Grace It’s honestly pretty gross and disgusting that you consider that “Karen” behavior. No. That’s called being a good person. Don’t be a shitty person...
My father kidnapped me into another country when i was 5 and my mom had to get a swat team to find us. Took 3 months and i was traumatised for a long time :) i relate to you on so many levels glad i subscribed.
@@anastasial7687 when you tell a story so many times you start to disassociate from it. When i was a child i cried everytime i told it but now i pretty much processed it. Still hate my dad so there's that.
if i remember correctly, in the past you biological father had sent you packages stuff, do you still get those packages or anything from him anymore? really don't mean to offend you with this question or anything like that
My mom was kidnapped when she was four years old. It was by a stranger and she was taken out of a sandbox. She was held in a shed for a day. So kidnapping does really happen
for everyone wondering why the amber alert name is Ashley McDonald, she changed it in order to stay safe and also for business reasons in terms of her modelling career. her last name is probably Taylor since she cut ties with her dad
I‘m so glad you talked about this. People misunderstand the concept of kidnapping. In most cases its a parent that kidnaps the child due to a horrible custody fight. My twin sister and I were both kidnapped in 2009 when we were 9 years old. Our dad and his new wife tried to get us out of my moms car when she picked us up from school. They literally tried to rip us out and we were terrified and screaming. My mom went on the gas and we drove away but my dad chased us around the city. My mom called the police while driving super fast but my dad was behind us. The police could finally locate us and when we had to stop at a red light they took us all to the police station even our dad. Must have looked very weird for other drivers though. Anyways turned out the police had to give us to our dad (long story in which he lied, the judge gave him immediate rights). I cried all night for weeks and called my mom secretly under the blanket until the battery was over and i wouldn’t see her for 3 years. Whenever I want to talk about this event with a friend they seem to take it as not serious or just talk over it.. it’s so hard to open up to someone because most people don’t understand. So thank you for telling your story
I don't know what it's like to be kidnapped but I know what it is like to be fearing for your life or sad and having no one to open up to about it and I am 11 years old and that's saying something because u should not have to experience tragic stuff like that at such a young age 😔 it is very heart breaking 💔
This father is nowhere near capable of being a father, how could someone have such disturbing thoughts!? However; I hope you and your mother will be able to see each other soon! Don’t loose hope.
Other UA-camrs: Yeah a few bad things have happened in my life Natalia Taylor: I was kidnapped, I have a whole bunch of horrifying photo shoot experiences, and my nail artist ripped out my nails and made me bleed. *Smiles*
I was kidnapped by my mother when I was 4, when my Dad went to work my mother has waited till we( by we I mean my older sister and I)fell asleep an put us in the back of her trunk in her car. It’s kind of hard to say whether I’m angry about it or not cause she thought she was doing the right thing. Since my father is an abusive drunk. But anyways I woke up in the back of her trunk so confused watching us slowly drive away from our house. A lot of it is fuzzy cause it’s been YEARS. But my sister was asleep the entire time. When I asked my mom where we were going she’d just tell me to go back to sleep or not respond. So I lived in Brooklyn but she moved us to Dyckman, Manhattan. Since almost all her family lived there. And that was where I lived for the next 6-7 years. I was actually happy surprisingly enough because I had my sister and our cousins. We raised each other more than our parents did and we looked out for each other. I rarely saw my Dad during those years. I saw him twice a month if we were “lucky”. But eventually my mother had gotten into a new relationship and after two years she wanted him to move in. I didn’t really like him but what was I suppose to say? So they got so close that she called my Dad and they made an agreement. That I would move back with him along with my sister so that she could be alone with this guy...I couldn’t even explain the betrayal I felt when hearing that. Not even from her but from my dad. So living with him has been the worst years of my life. It crushed my childhood, I now suffer with depression, and anxiety after the amount of physical,emotional, and verbal abuse I have dealt with for about four years. My sister is now almost twenty and I’m going to be 16. My sister is saving up for an apartment and I plan to move in with her. Since I’m gonna be 16 soon I can get a part time job so I could help with some bills. But yeah wish me luck.
I am so sorry to know you went through all this, you are strong to have endured all that and had the courage to share what you went through, I pray that you have a better future
Please try to find recourses that could help you and your sister. There are a lot of organizations and charities that can help. Good luck sweet girl please know you will get thru this soo strong and flourish and become an amazing woman who reaches all her goals. You're already a boss just hold on to your strength and courage and continue to fight for yourself. You got this !! You seem to have the right mind set and plans. You and your sister will make it out very soon.
Watch the movie "When Andrew Came Home" It's about a boy who gets kidnapped by his biological dad at 5 years old and then returned to his mom, completely traumatized at 10 years old...
When I was seven and my brother was five, my dad chased me, my mom , and my brother down the road with a knife and slit his throat in front of us. It was a very traumatizing experience. He survived, went to prison and after he got out he was homeless. He has been homeless for 11 years and is still homeless to this day. I have a relationship with him although it is not ideal. I completely understand you when you talk about not trusting because of something that a parent has done to you. It is a very touchy subject. It's also extremely complicated because, like you said, it is not something that you can compare to trust issues because of a past relationship with a boyfriend or girlfriend its a deeper feeling, because this is a parent that's supposed to love you unconditionally and yet they made this decision... and it blows your mind how someone could do that to a child let alone your own child.. Like I said earlier it is very touchy topic for me, I just wanted to reach out and say that I do completely and genuinely understand what you meant when you said that it is a different kind of distrust.. Anyways, much love for you and what you do. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger. Xoxo.
I almost got kidnapped once So, I was walking home from school with 2 of my friends and they went into a shop so I waited outside for them but they thought it would be funny to walk away when I was waiting for them.. after a few mins they weren’t in The shop when I checked so I started walking to one of my friends house, then some guy said “I’m a friend of your mom, she told me to pick you up” So me remembering what school had told us about what to do if this happened I ran at a random woman saying MOM This guy wants me to go in his car did you ask him to The woman called the police and the guy ran off they never caught him
She has a really big heart to empathize with someone who kidnapped her and could have potentially “hurt” her....she also really knows how to look at the bright side of things👌🏼
@@viclinguini8554 Her situation maybe different. Not saying her specifically it's just that some of us are far too forgiving and it gets us in trouble. Took years for me to examine all that.
Can we just appreciate the fact that natalia sits in front of a hot ring light for such a long time, a full face of makeup, and talks for a long time to?! queennnn
The angel should have prevented that shit from happening in the first place. Why would an all-loving god allow a father to kidnap their child and nearly “send them both to heaven”
Ohyeet because God has a reason for everything, besides if that didn’t happen she wouldn’t be sharing this story, maybe there is someone out there who needs to get over something like this, this might actually help other people. 💕
My bio dad was extremely abusive through out my life. He was also mentally ill and had brain swelling due to a auto immune disorder. He aslo had horrible spiritual psychosis. Iwatched your original videos on this topic very young. Hearing your experience really helped me realize that it is in fact possible to escape him. So thank you. Post traumatic growth really is a powerful thing.
ashleigh hayles in her original video that she deleted she talked about how she did have it changed for protection reasons. I believe to keep Rod from finding her, but again i can’t speak on her behalf especially since it’s been a long time since I’ve seen the original video.
I actually just got my name changed from Lawrence to Mellott this is a story that relates very closely to me except I wasn’t kidnapped for long he took me to an ice cream shop for about a hour then cops showed up and that’s all I remember....welp! That’s my story ❤️✌🏻
If a person asks you to “get in their car” or “help look for their dog” go over to a random woman and say “mommy” “this man said you asked him to pick me up” they should know what situation your in and call the police. Stay safe 💕
my mum taught me when I was a young child that if someone I don't know was to physically pick me up instead of normal screaming and yelling (could be perceived as a temper tantrum) yell "THIS IS NOT MY PARENT"
You could go up to a house, knock, and wait for the door to open. If it does, say this to the person who answers: “mom/dad/(name), I’m home! What’s for dinner/breakfast/lunch?” And whisper the truth to them.
I heard about a kidnapping that happened almost just like this and the child was murdered by his mother. His mom picked him up from school, took him to his favorite place and killed him afterwards. It's so sick. I'm really glad that your story didn't end up in the news as a murder.
The past three amber alerts in my area were children abducted by their parents. A lot of people complained about the amber alert saying that it woke them and their babies up in the night. And they were like it’s just the parent no big deal but in one of the amber alerts the child was killed by her father so... this happens and it’s real
omg i hate the people who complain about amber alerts waking them up. like, your sleep isn't as important as a report for a missing person! it's really important!!! wake up america! l i t e r a l l y !
Vivian T it’s so stupid and it honestly made me mad that their concern was their sleep and not a missing child. if it was their child they wouldn’t be complaining so idk why they thought it was ok to call the POLICE about it when the calls should be reserved for people that are trying to give information 🤦🏾♀️. when i got it it freaked me the hell out but it’s an amber alert for crying out loud a child is missing so i didn’t care my sleep is not more important than a mother searching for her child PERIOD !!!
My mom once *almost* got kidnapped. So she’s 41 now but when she has like 6 or 5 she lived in an apartment. There was a whole lot of apartments in alphabetical order, like building F or Y etc. She told me she liked to pretend she lived in the different apartments by hanging out on the patios. The patios are at the top of the stairs, second floor. So she was playing around and this man was at the base of one of the stairs. He called out to her, “hey little girl!” My mom looked at him, and like every red flag went off in her head. He held out a brown paper bag and said, “I got some money! I’ll give you some if you come with me!” He shook the bag and coins jingled around. My mom started walking up the stairs come more keeping her eyes on him. “Com’on! I won’t hurt ya!” He called out. My mom stood at the top of the stairs staring at him. “Okay... I’ll just leave them here for you...” and he walked off. After like 10 minuets after he left, my mom ran down the stairs, ignored the bag of money and ran all the way back to her apartment. She told my grandma What happened and she called the police. They didn’t find the man but apparently there was a guy kidnapping children using money to lure them. Turns out there were 200 pennies, ($2) in the bag. My grandma let my mom buy a Barbie toy, (even though it was like more than $2 :p) and To this day I am now in possession of that Barbie toy! I’ve never had close encounters with kidnappers tho
You look beautiful in this video. I am so sorry this happened. I can’t imagine how scary that must have been. My best friend in kindergarten got abducted by her father and she was never found. They have no idea what happened to her. It is so so sad.
Thank you for sharing your story about parental kidnapping. Parental kidnapping is a form of kidnapping that seems to confuse alot of people...(Parental kidnapping is a felony btw for those of you who think it's not "actual kidnapping") my son (who is 7) was kidnapped by his biological father (who has no legal custody right to him) and we are in the court process of getting him back. Your story actually brings me comfort that my son will get thru this with therapy and hopefully be able to look back on the situation with compassion and no fear in the future.
AHHHH i've been waiting years, LITERAL years for an update!!! I'm an old subscriber and I remember your crazy storytimes and your background and your dark black hair!! AHHH miss those days
Ty~Sheree I am so sorry. Your son is a brave and strong man, you’re a beautiful and strong woman. thank you for sharing, never forget that everything happens for a reason, to make you stronger and to teach you lessons
I’ve almost got kidnapped last year My story time: I was with my cousin (we were both 12) and we were walking to the dollar general and once we got there everything was fine we just wanted to get snacks because she was staying the night at my house and as we were walking this tall man in a black jacket starts following us. At first we thought he was just buying groceries but then we go to the makeup and stuff because we knew a guy wouldn’t buy makeup and we gave it about 30 seconds and he was there... I was so scared but my cousin didn’t think much of it she was just looking around and stuff and then we go to check out I just bought like 2 things so I didn’t look suspicious and I got done checking out fast then my cousin got done but she was just talking to the worker the whole time and while she was talking to the worker the guy walks past us slowly and then he like says come here with his hands if you get what I’m saying and that’s when I start freaking out! After he does that I grab my cousin and say bye to the worker and then outside I tell her to run and I kinda whisper to her what happened and then she started freaking out as well! The guy left the store like 30 seconds after us that’s when I knew he wanted to kidnap us. He got in his car and started following us (we also had Starbucks from earlier that day) we threw out Starbucks and the ground and stared running as fast as we could and we finally got to an apartment complex that was like 1 minute away from the store, than he got out of his car and started walking up to us at the apartments and we had no where else to go because it was kinda like a dead end so we had to Jump someone’s fence and fell into a bunch of snow (it happened in February) and we were just both balling out eyes out so much. After we jumped the fence we had to run through like 10 peoples yards and then we finally got to a woods and that’s when I knew I was almost home because the woods was right down the street from my house (except my house is at the bottom of the woods and at that moment we were at the way top) we took like a 30 second break at the woods because we knew we lost the guy then we just started running home again (note we were holding sacks and balling our eyes out holding hands) we finally got home after like 2 minutes of running from the woods. When we got home we were both talking so fast crying and my mom called the dollar general and the couldn’t find the man because he was looking down the whole time by all the cameras and all I know was that his car was a small black car. Ever since that I can’t go anywhere by myself! If you read all of this comment something
Always flying Higher it was like 2 days before valentines when we went to it was really busy and usually at my dollar general there is one worker at a time so she was checking out everyone’s stuff and I was scared to talk to other people because I thought they weren’t gonna believe me (we were both only 12 and it was our first time experiencing something like that so we didn’t know was to do
Seeing someone going through something so traumatic & turning it around & spreading a positive message is so beautiful ! You are such a beautiful person ! Stay strong luv !!
Almost a year later, hello Natalia! I was also kidnapped by my bio father. I was under a year old and my mom didn't know where I was for three whole days. He took me halfway across the country to see his parents, and never said anything to my mom. Needless to say, he is no longer in my life and hasn't been since around that time.
Just in case anyone doesn’t believe this, I live in the same town as her and a lady at the laundry mat told me she remembered seeing it on the news. SO THUR

for everyone wondering why the amber alert name is Ashley McDonald, she changed it in order to stay safe and also for business reasons in terms of her modelling career. her last name is probably Taylor since she cut ties with her dad
Her middle name is Taylor- she was adopted by her stepdad but I won’t dox her by posting her real last name.
I remember the original video plus the mail you got from him
Jessica Austin me too !!!
samee
Omg ye I remember
I remember that!!!
Me too!!
I can speak for everyone when I say, THANK GOD YOU ARE SAFE!
Amen! I had no idea this happened, so crazy! So glad she's o.k. & dealing with it so well, she's one tough cookie.
Except for me
I‘m so glad you talked about this. People misunderstand the concept of kidnapping. In most cases its a parent that kidnaps the child due to a horrible custody fight. My twin sister and I were both kidnapped in 2009 when we were 9 years old. Our dad and his new wife tried to get us out of my moms car when she picked us up from school. They literally tried to rip us out and we were terrified and screaming. My mom went on the gas and we drove away but my dad chased us around the city. My mom called the police while driving super fast but my dad was behind us. The police could finally locate us and when we had to stop at a red light they took us all to the police station even our dad. Must have looked very weird for other drivers though. Anyways turned out the police had to give us to our dad (long story in which he lied, the judge gave him immediate rights). I cried all night for weeks and called my mom secretly under the blanket until the battery was over and i wouldn’t see her for 3 years. Whenever I want to talk about this event with a friend they seem to take it as not serious or just talk over it.. it’s so hard to open up to someone because most people don’t understand. So thank you for telling your story
k
I don't know what is the right thing to say, but I'm sorry for you I guess. I can't even imagine what that would feel like ❤
I don't know what it's like to be kidnapped but I know what it is like to be fearing for your life or sad and having no one to open up to about it and I am 11 years old and that's saying something because u should not have to experience tragic stuff like that at such a young age 😔 it is very heart breaking 💔
This father is nowhere near capable of being a father, how could someone have such disturbing thoughts!? However; I hope you and your mother will be able to see each other soon! Don’t loose hope.
Stay strong 💪 x
Other UA-camrs: Yeah a few bad things have happened in my life
Natalia Taylor: I was kidnapped, I have a whole bunch of horrifying photo shoot experiences, and my nail artist ripped out my nails and made me bleed. *Smiles*

If only you knew what video would come out...
I was kidnapped by my mother when I was 4, when my Dad went to work my mother has waited till we( by we I mean my older sister and I)fell asleep an put us in the back of her trunk in her car. It’s kind of hard to say whether I’m angry about it or not cause she thought she was doing the right thing. Since my father is an abusive drunk. But anyways I woke up in the back of her trunk so confused watching us slowly drive away from our house. A lot of it is fuzzy cause it’s been YEARS. But my sister was asleep the entire time. When I asked my mom where we were going she’d just tell me to go back to sleep or not respond. So I lived in Brooklyn but she moved us to Dyckman, Manhattan. Since almost all her family lived there. And that was where I lived for the next 6-7 years. I was actually happy surprisingly enough because I had my sister and our cousins. We raised each other more than our parents did and we looked out for each other. I rarely saw my Dad during those years. I saw him twice a month if we were “lucky”. But eventually my mother had gotten into a new relationship and after two years she wanted him to move in. I didn’t really like him but what was I suppose to say? So they got so close that she called my Dad and they made an agreement. That I would move back with him along with my sister so that she could be alone with this guy...I couldn’t even explain the betrayal I felt when hearing that. Not even from her but from my dad. So living with him has been the worst years of my life. It crushed my childhood, I now suffer with depression, and anxiety after the amount of physical,emotional, and verbal abuse I have dealt with for about four years. My sister is now almost twenty and I’m going to be 16. My sister is saving up for an apartment and I plan to move in with her. Since I’m gonna be 16 soon I can get a part time job so I could help with some bills. But yeah wish me luck.
Paris Heavenly good luck bbg💗
If you’re still living with him plz report him. He could get sent to jail and go through the abusive that he deserves.
I am so sorry to know you went through all this, you are strong to have endured all that and had the courage to share what you went through, I pray that you have a better future
Please try to find recourses that could help you and your sister. There are a lot of organizations and charities that can help. Good luck sweet girl please know you will get thru this soo strong and flourish and become an amazing woman who reaches all her goals. You're already a boss just hold on to your strength and courage and continue to fight for yourself. You got this !! You seem to have the right mind set and plans. You and your sister will make it out very soon.
Good luck

when he said that i thout she was going to DIE
Watch the movie "When Andrew Came Home"
It's about a boy who gets kidnapped by his biological dad at 5 years old and then returned to his mom, completely traumatized at 10 years old...
i watched the movie omg it was so sad :,(
BringMe Joy I watched it
I love that movie
And it’s makes me so emotional
I can’t express how happy I am that you’re alive
When I was seven and my brother was five, my dad chased me, my mom , and my brother down the road with a knife and slit his throat in front of us. It was a very traumatizing experience. He survived, went to prison and after he got out he was homeless. He has been homeless for 11 years and is still homeless to this day. I have a relationship with him although it is not ideal. I completely understand you when you talk about not trusting because of something that a parent has done to you. It is a very touchy subject. It's also extremely complicated because, like you said, it is not something that you can compare to trust issues because of a past relationship with a boyfriend or girlfriend its a deeper feeling, because this is a parent that's supposed to love you unconditionally and yet they made this decision... and it blows your mind how someone could do that to a child let alone your own child.. Like I said earlier it is very touchy topic for me, I just wanted to reach out and say that I do completely and genuinely understand what you meant when you said that it is a different kind of distrust.. Anyways, much love for you and what you do. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger. Xoxo.
I almost cried reading that :c i feel so bad for you
Wow ur amazing
Savannah Warner that. Must of been so difficult to go threw xx

I almost got kidnapped once
So,
I was walking home from school with 2 of my friends and they went into a shop so I waited outside for them but they thought it would be funny to walk away when I was waiting for them.. after a few mins they weren’t in The shop when I checked so I started walking to one of my friends house, then some guy said “I’m a friend of your mom, she told me to pick you up”
So me remembering what school had told us about what to do if this happened I ran at a random woman saying MOM This guy wants me to go in his car did you ask him to
The woman called the police and the guy ran off they never caught him
That's scary
You're really smart but what did the woman say when you called her mom?!
Celine Abdallah she looked at me and said “what” then I whispered “he’s trying to take Me”
Theu never caught him??? Well the cops in your town must suck

the people who disliked this have no feelings. Like what goes through a person's mind to dislike this. She is spreading her story and awarness.
She has a really big heart to empathize with someone who kidnapped her and could have potentially “hurt” her....she also really knows how to look at the bright side of things👌🏼
not always great...I could go into my story where I kept getting abused because of that.
Leo's Universe oh....I’m sorry, i just thought that in her situation it made sense, but i know there’s always another side to things, apologies
@@viclinguini8554 Her situation maybe different. Not saying her specifically it's just that some of us are far too forgiving and it gets us in trouble. Took years for me to examine all that.

The angel should have prevented that shit from happening in the first place. Why would an all-loving god allow a father to kidnap their child and nearly “send them both to heaven”
Ohyeet everything happens for a reason? Whatever this reason was I hope it’s a good one!
Ohyeet because God has a reason for everything, besides if that didn’t happen she wouldn’t be sharing this story, maybe there is someone out there who needs to get over something like this, this might actually help other people. 💕

If a person asks you to “get in their car” or “help look for their dog” go over to a random woman and say “mommy” “this man said you asked him to pick me up” they should know what situation your in and call the police. Stay safe 💕
and if nobodys there u can say "i dont have a mom" and then start walking and take the nearest corner and start running
my mum taught me when I was a young child that if someone I don't know was to physically pick me up instead of normal screaming and yelling (could be perceived as a temper tantrum) yell "THIS IS NOT MY PARENT"
even that can’t ensure your safety nowadays. that’s really scary
You could go up to a house, knock, and wait for the door to open. If it does, say this to the person who answers: “mom/dad/(name), I’m home! What’s for dinner/breakfast/lunch?” And whisper the truth to them.
But what if you don’t know the lady and she kidnaps you
I heard about a kidnapping that happened almost just like this and the child was murdered by his mother. His mom picked him up from school, took him to his favorite place and killed him afterwards. It's so sick. I'm really glad that your story didn't end up in the news as a murder.
The past three amber alerts in my area were children abducted by their parents. A lot of people complained about the amber alert saying that it woke them and their babies up in the night. And they were like it’s just the parent no big deal but in one of the amber alerts the child was killed by her father so... this happens and it’s real
Do you live in Ontario?
Emmala Sunshine yup
Omg same I live in Ontario and it happened to me too
omg i hate the people who complain about amber alerts waking them up. like, your sleep isn't as important as a report for a missing person! it's really important!!! wake up america! l i t e r a l l y !
Vivian T it’s so stupid and it honestly made me mad that their concern was their sleep and not a missing child. if it was their child they wouldn’t be complaining so idk why they thought it was ok to call the POLICE about it when the calls should be reserved for people that are trying to give information 🤦🏾♀️. when i got it it freaked me the hell out but it’s an amber alert for crying out loud a child is missing so i didn’t care my sleep is not more important than a mother searching for her child PERIOD !!!

My mom once *almost* got kidnapped.
So she’s 41 now but when she has like 6 or 5 she lived in an apartment.
There was a whole lot of apartments in alphabetical order, like building F or Y etc.
She told me she liked to pretend she lived in the different apartments by hanging out on the patios.
The patios are at the top of the stairs, second floor.
So she was playing around and this man was at the base of one of the stairs.
He called out to her, “hey little girl!”
My mom looked at him, and like every red flag went off in her head.
He held out a brown paper bag and said, “I got some money! I’ll give you some if you come with me!” He shook the bag and coins jingled around.
My mom started walking up the stairs come more keeping her eyes on him.
“Com’on! I won’t hurt ya!” He called out.
My mom stood at the top of the stairs staring at him.
“Okay... I’ll just leave them here for you...” and he walked off.
After like 10 minuets after he left, my mom ran down the stairs, ignored the bag of money and ran all the way back to her apartment.
She told my grandma What happened and she called the police. They didn’t find the man but apparently there was a guy kidnapping children using money to lure them. Turns out there were 200 pennies, ($2) in the bag. My grandma let my mom buy a Barbie toy, (even though it was like more than $2 :p) and To this day I am now in possession of that Barbie toy!
I’ve never had close encounters with kidnappers tho
how was your mom so smart for that age?

Thank you for sharing your story about parental kidnapping. Parental kidnapping is a form of kidnapping that seems to confuse alot of people...(Parental kidnapping is a felony btw for those of you who think it's not "actual kidnapping") my son (who is 7) was kidnapped by his biological father (who has no legal custody right to him) and we are in the court process of getting him back. Your story actually brings me comfort that my son will get thru this with therapy and hopefully be able to look back on the situation with compassion and no fear in the future.

I’ve almost got kidnapped last year
My story time:
I was with my cousin (we were both 12) and we were walking to the dollar general and once we got there everything was fine we just wanted to get snacks because she was staying the night at my house and as we were walking this tall man in a black jacket starts following us. At first we thought he was just buying groceries but then we go to the makeup and stuff because we knew a guy wouldn’t buy makeup and we gave it about 30 seconds and he was there... I was so scared but my cousin didn’t think much of it she was just looking around and stuff and then we go to check out I just bought like 2 things so I didn’t look suspicious and I got done checking out fast then my cousin got done but she was just talking to the worker the whole time and while she was talking to the worker the guy walks past us slowly and then he like says come here with his hands if you get what I’m saying and that’s when I start freaking out! After he does that I grab my cousin and say bye to the worker and then outside I tell her to run and I kinda whisper to her what happened and then she started freaking out as well! The guy left the store like 30 seconds after us that’s when I knew he wanted to kidnap us. He got in his car and started following us (we also had Starbucks from earlier that day) we threw out Starbucks and the ground and stared running as fast as we could and we finally got to an apartment complex that was like 1 minute away from the store, than he got out of his car and started walking up to us at the apartments and we had no where else to go because it was kinda like a dead end so we had to Jump someone’s fence and fell into a bunch of snow (it happened in February) and we were just both balling out eyes out so much. After we jumped the fence we had to run through like 10 peoples yards and then we finally got to a woods and that’s when I knew I was almost home because the woods was right down the street from my house (except my house is at the bottom of the woods and at that moment we were at the way top) we took like a 30 second break at the woods because we knew we lost the guy then we just started running home again (note we were holding sacks and balling our eyes out holding hands) we finally got home after like 2 minutes of running from the woods. When we got home we were both talking so fast crying and my mom called the dollar general and the couldn’t find the man because he was looking down the whole time by all the cameras and all I know was that his car was a small black car. Ever since that I can’t go anywhere by myself! If you read all of this comment something
i read the whole thing, that sounds terrifying
I read it all you think the worker would see
Always flying Higher it was like 2 days before valentines when we went to it was really busy and usually at my dollar general there is one worker at a time so she was checking out everyone’s stuff and I was scared to talk to other people because I thought they weren’t gonna believe me (we were both only 12 and it was our first time experiencing something like that so we didn’t know was to do

Almost a year later, hello Natalia! I was also kidnapped by my bio father. I was under a year old and my mom didn't know where I was for three whole days. He took me halfway across the country to see his parents, and never said anything to my mom. Needless to say, he is no longer in my life and hasn't been since around that time.
