If you go out shopping with your children, please keep them at your side at all times.

1. I saw something strange yesterday at a fast food joint we were at and

checked out the local Amber Alerts. Hubby thought I was nuts. I'm going to forward this link to him. Thanks for posting.

You have to be SOOOOO careful. My kids are older and I still don't like it when my youngest (10yo) leaves my side to go find his dad or put something back in the store and a lot of my gray hairs are from my oldest playing 'hide and seek' in the clothes racks in stores. I remember years ago, it was a horrible feeling to come out of a dressing room, ask hubby where our 4yo daughter was and have him point and say "over there somewhere".

2. When my sister and I will younger (I was probably about 6 or 7)

we were allowed to shop and meet up at a specific time or to even go back to the car to wait if we were bored. Heavens how things have changed. For a mother to allow their child out of their sight now would just be insane.
