Contrary to what Fox News would have you believe, snatching kinds up out of parks is a really, really rare thing, especially if the park is busy. Bad guys generally don't like to be seen doing bad guy shit, and it's kinda hard not to be seen at a busy public park.

A little less seriously, I did grow up in a rural area and had a forest as my back yard. I really wish more children got to grow up around a wild space like that, rather than deeply managed and heavily sanitized parks and back yards.
