Based on what information? Where did you get that idea?

Did you happen to know that we are safer than we have been in DECADES?

Actually, on the contrary. They're much lower than when you were a kid.

So you wouldn't allow your 11 year old to ride her bike around the corner unsupervised? Walk a couple blocks to school? Those activities are normal for an 11 year old and are part of increasing freedom and responsibility slowly to make them independent adults. Those activities are also much more likely to to expose a child to creeps than sitting in a locked car. If she was hot, she can go inside.

12 year olds are registered with the police department here as certified babysitters.

You are the paranoid creep.

You need to get off the internet - too much info is destroying your common sense.

Something that happens to 1 out of every 1 million kids...is something that weighs on your mind every time you go to the store?

I bet you worry about Ebola too...and Malaria and getting your Kidney stolen at a bar.
