Amber, Tanya and I feel the same way. I grew up in a Detroit suburb and had pretty much free reign of the local area too. Those times are sadly gone. A lot of people just don't want to get involved even if they see something. There was a show a while back where undercover cops did a mock kidnapping in a public place (the kid was in on it and acting). A guy came up and grabbed the kid. The kid is kicking and screaming help this isn't my dad. I think only 1 out of 10 people did anything to intervene and only one or two called the cops. Pretty !#$$% pathetic. I am going to be scared to death to let my kids out of my site until they're teenagers.

Heck, she'll probably be an airline CEO
