In my family it would result in them having to repeat the threat in front of the child, and having to listen to the child being given the "stranger danger" lecture with them as Exhibit A. Then depending on whether they physically touched the kid or not, they could be allowed to go home with or without a quick beating. What we've been having to teach to kids lately has been, is this person a friend of the family? okay. is this person not a friend of the family? not okay. is this person claiming to be from a school, government, anything like that? ignore that, see the two rules above. (And yes if you look at our family picture, it looks like a Sopranos wrap-up party)
