Creepy!

My little girl called me from camp. She had been in a very creepy situation the night before. The whole group was making a late night walk in the woods. They were supposed to find their way back to the camp. All of a sudden, out of the blue, a car raced towards the group of children. They heard the brakes slam and two people opened the doors real fast. They grabbed one of the girls, threw her in the car and rushed off. The other kids were totally frantic and panicking. They didn't know what to think of it. One boy was totally in shock, and he ran after the fleeing car, because he wanted to rescue the girl...!! But it was too late. The car was gone.. The guides accompanying the children, called the police on their cell phone. In the meantime, all of the children were crying and screaming. And then the car raced back towards the group. They heard the tires squeak on the tarmac, throwing pebble stones all over the place..

It was a joke. It was part of the game.. but it was not funny. Not at all. I don't think it's funny at all. Not in these dark days. Kids do get kidnapped and abducted. I don't see the use of making a joke out of it. Neither did my little girl.. She must have been frightened to death..
