      Prior to this incident, I've found kids crying before. Most of the time, I'll hold the hand or carry them to the information counter. Now, I'm worried if i were to do the same, will people think I'm trying to abduct them?


      Also, most of the time I never get a \"Thank You\".
      I guess , now to help those children who got separated from their parents is to alert the security first ... but there again, the poor security guard will be very \"boh eng\" !

        but how to look for security guard when he is not in sight. and i can tell you that the receptionist at the info counter would never leave her seat even if it is 50m away.


        they would just tell you they would call some1 to check. :faint:

                    I have several "encounters" of helping lost child to find their parents… and would like to share with you this…


                    Case 1 : around 3 months back
                    Brought my 2 kids to AMK library, when i was reaching the entrance, I noticed a panic looking young girl around 5yr old walking very quickly out of the library and keep mumbling "mummy …mummy"

                    I am very worried ( as i mentioned earlier, already have several such encounters so a bit experience in spoting lost kids)… i quickly brushed my kids to look for their own reading materials while mummy go find mine ( i dont want to alert them as they will be very kepo ) then i quicky left them and try to help that little girl…

                    On the way, i keep asking ppl whether they got see a crying little girl, then i noticed 2 students stopped and staring at the direction towards "Jack’s place" i asked them whether they saw that little girl, they pointed to me the direction, l asked them to help me locate that girl, as we walked furhter n further away from the library, i asked a ice cream vendor, a few passer-bys, they all pointed to the direction of market!! ( almost 2 carpark away from library ) !!!

                    Finally, i saw a man standing beside her and saw her calling her mother ( my first reaction was, who is that man? crook? i quickly approached him n told him i m looking for the girl, and relieved to hear that he is calling her mother then, i answered the phone and informed the mother that her girl is lost ( i wonder has she noticed it yet …

                    while walking back to the library, the little girl was still crying, so to distract and cool her down , i chatted with her, praising her she was so clever tat she know mummy’s no. and telling her not to walk away from her parents if she cant find them the next time as it was very dangerous to cross the roads on her own…

                    I m feeling very relief to bring her back to her parents…

                      Snowball, well done! 💋

                      So her mum realized her gal was missing or only when you told her?
                      Poor little gal must be so frightened. She shouldn't wander so far & was lucky enough to meet kind souls like you & the man who helped to call her mum. :love:
