That stat is shared among parents so much. "840,000 missing a year" in a nation of 73 million children is interpreted as meaning in any given year you have a 1 in 87 chance of never seeing your child again at any given time. My brother won't return his shopping cart to the shopping cart return area because, in those 30 seconds where his back is turned, someone is likely to take his children. One parent told me they take it one step further and they won't use passenger door to put their children in the car. Instead, they reach through the car from the driver's door. This way they don't have to walk around the car which would allow someone to take their child. I've suggested just locking the children in the car but it seems like solving the wrong problem, really.
