Kidnappings happen every single day, so if you are a parent... having this kind of info could potentially prevent your child from being abducted. The National Center of Missing and Exploited Children has shared the three times in an average day when kidnappings and abductions are most likely to occur. It's one thing to remember that kidnappings could happen more on the weekends vs weekdays, but the times in an average day are;

1. Between 7:00 AM and 9:00 AM. That's when most kids are on their way to school, so they're less likely to be with an adult.

2. Between 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM. So, right AFTER school.

3. Between 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM. That's right after dinner for most people, when kids might be outside playing without supervision.
