It is obvious that this is the most insidious and low, but at the same time the most effective crime.Why is that?Yes, because kidnapping in a very broad sense - is kidnapping (from the English word kidnap - «steal"), but because the root kid («child»), the value of this concept has been narrowed to a value of "kidnapping."And what can be more expensive for parents of children?All the acquired overwork parents (apartments, cars, cottages, mink coats, jewelry, stocks, furniture and other material goods) can never be compared with what is simply impossible to measure the monetary signs, - the life of her child.A loving parent who would be able to withstand the ordeal of physical pain, never stand the torture threatened the life of his child.The purpose of kidnapping is simple - money.
What is the purpose?
main and most common goal of criminals - ransom in this area come up with something "better" is not possible, out of competition - kidnapping.What a terrible grief for parents, criminals do not think.It's terrible, but not critical.Redemption involves some contact with the kidnappers (at least, the purpose of the place of transfer of money), and the hope that the child will survive.The security forces (police and so on. N.) In this case, it is better not to disturb - can commit follies.Second, on the sad statistics, the case of kidnapping - is the return of the child to one of the would-be parents, as a rule, after the divorce.This is the safest for the baby case.Here it is necessary to negotiate (sue, shake down unclarified relations) with ex-husband (wife).The most critical and dangerous goal kidnapping - that sexual violence, and even getting the internal organs and the sale of children bereaved parents (such as abroad).In these cases, the kidnappers to contact the parents, of course, will not go.If during the day there was no news of the child and there are no requirements for his release - in this case, you have to apply to the police!
Kidnapping: what it is and how to protect yourself?
Preventive methods of child protection enough.Their practical implementation, of course, depends on the social status and material well-being of parents.The main methods of protection against kidnapping can be grouped into six items:
- hired a group of escort or bodyguard (the most expensive, but the most effective way).
- Hire a tutor or governess.
- constant support parents.
- accompanied by relatives, friends, acquaintances.
- move in an organized group of children.
- technical means of tracking (for example, your child should be a phone with a GPS unit and a program that tells you where the child).
But we should not forget about elementary preventive measures if there is the slightest suspicion of a possible kidnapping.
elementary but important things
There is an opportunity for all available crime prevention, is no exception and kidnapping.What is it?The usual caution!The victims are often children kidnappers, who ignore the most basic safety rules.Try to talk with your child about basic, but very important things:
- You can not talk on the street with strangers.
- can not take gifts from strangers adults.
- can not go anywhere with strangers.
- In case of danger, the child must not scream, "Help!" (This is often perceived by others as an ordinary family quarrel), and "This is not my father!I do not know the man! ".
- If a child is pursuing, it should not run in a dark alley or the first available access, and a public, crowded place: shop, cafe, bus stop.
main thing - do no harm!
very important: you need to carry out preventive conversation so that the child has not developed any fears and phobias.Coming out of the house, he should not be afraid of bearded Barmaley who only dream of his kidnap and eat breakfast.Let your child to even think about the kidnapping, it's just a new fun game.
