Wow, your school really prepared you. Glad you made the right move. I remember making a kidnap kit in the 90s in case of kidnapping. This story made me remember of a similar experience. I was angry at my parents who said they wouldn't take me to town to buy a doll, so I decided to walk the 5 mile trek. I only got as far as a few houses down when a man in a car pulled up. He had glasses. He asked if I wanted a ride. I shook my head and kept walking. He continued driving beside me. A woman ran out of the house and shouted at the man who sped off and then she called my parents. I think I was 7.
