Delia's reaction to today's news story

"Mom, I'm not that stupid."

I should jolly well hope not.

Not stupid enough to run off like that, or not stupid enough to opt into a culture of fear that sees kidnappers everywhere, as shown by the early news coverage? Both, I hope. (As I said to [livejournal.com profile] cakmpls, stranger kidnapping is really rare but does happen, so ideally kids would be careful but not afraid.)

Um, I stepped in this one without looking--please check my comment to a previous entry before responding. OK? (Then you can ream me out. ;-))
