photo of me and my daughter
I was just on the phone with my daughter while she waited for a bus. She likes to stay on the phone with me because it makes her feel safer. She said that a suspicious car was sitting a couple of blocks away with his lights out. Then he moved a block closer. She asked if she should walk back home and I told her yes. Then, all of a sudden, my daughter says "He's following me!" I'm screaming "How close is he?" and "Where is he?" My poor daughter sounded so stressed, almost in complete terror, when she screamed "He's coming! He's following me!!!" Being on the phone, helpless to save my baby, all I could yell was "RUN!!!" My daughter sounded like she was about to have a nervous breakdown as she ran for her life! I'm repeatedly asking "How close is he? How close to home are you?" I was thinking this man was in his car the whole time, but my mother just told me that this garbage had gotent out of his ride and chased my daughter.
Any parent, and particularly any father, can only imagine my feelings right now. I just listened to the attempted abduction (or worse) of my daughter...and I was powerless to help her! My daughter is very aware of her surroundings and that's a very good thing. For those reading this...STAY AWARE!
That powerlessness that I spoke of comes from not having a car. If I did, I would be driving her, and she would be a lot comfortable and safe. I have a GOFundMe Page that addresses this. I realize that money is tight during the holidays, but any donations after the New Year would be greatly appreciated. Happy and SAFE Holidays to you all!
