I came across this thought-provoking article tonight, and so I have gone through and deleted all the pictures of my kids and have removed their names.
It's easy to forget that sick people are out there and are actively SEEKING out children. The Shasta Groene case (which is ALL OVER the news here since it was local to our TV station) was eye-opening to me. Joseph Duncan had been driving around, looking for kids, and happened to see her playing in her yard in her swimsuit. After that he would go at night and spy in their windows to find out the lay-out of their home so he could plan his attack to kidnap her.
So while I know that I can't protect them 100%, I can try to do what I can.
