22,000? I'm not sure what definition they are using of abduction, but children being snatched by strangers is very rare well under 200 cases a year. The DOJ says
An estimated 105 children were victims of stereotypical kidnappings in 2011,
This, of course, is a tiny percentage of the kids listed as missing each year.
According to a 2002 federal study on missing children, 99.8 percent of children reported missing were located or returned home alive. The remaining 0.2 percent either did not return home or were not found. The study estimated that most of missing children cases involved runaways from juvenile facilities and that only an estimated 0.0068 percent were true kidnappings by a stranger. The primary conclusion of the study was that child abductions perpetrated by strangers rarely occur. However, when they do occur, the results can be tragic.
Yes. Absolutely. The stereotypical child kidnapping where a kid is snatched by a stranger and taken away is highly uncommon. It's also a big noisy event. The Amber Alert system lets lots of people know instantly when something has occurred. The idea that your kids are in danger of kidnapping if you go to the men's room and leave your kids outside for a few minutes is false. There's like 125 kidnappings a year and like 70 million kids in America.
The vast majority of abductions of children are by people they know. There's hundreds of thousands of cases of kids abducted by one of their parents usally during custody battles. The next category down I believe is abductions by acquaintances. It turns out "Stranger Danger" is less of a threat than folks close by. The document I linked talks about all this. And defines what they mean by stereotypical kidnapping and what they mean by abduction. If a person has 48 hour custody rights and keeps the kids from Saturday to Tuesday, that is legally an abduction.
