Its just the media today is instant, and one kidnapping anywhere in the US or Canada can become instant big news.

By what we see on TV we should never leave the sides of our children, but the truth is we have never been safer, especially our children.
It's rare because the consequences are high and the vigilance is high. Pedophilia, sex predators and child abuse is not rare because its very difficult to stop adults who are in positions of trust.
