Is It No Longer Safe For Our Children To Walk The Streets Alone?
64 Answers
In the first case the two men are described as 'white' and in the second case the five men are described as being 'non-English'
Before anyone jumps in with "it matters not what nationality these men are", I agree, but I just added that because in recent such cases the police have been reluctant to issue such valuable information, when asking the public for their help.

Allowing our children to walk alone at any age has always been an issue - even as a child I recall Mothers trailing yards behind their children until they were in sight of the school gates.
I hope these cases lead to those alleged to have abducted youngsters being caught very quickly, thank goodness there is less fear to report now.

One survey records a 47% increase year on year, of non-parental abductions.
However, that seems to be due to a change in recording crime rather than the crime increasing. Of the Police forces asked to account for the rise, non indicated the crime itself had risen significantly. The police responses were:
// Why has non‐parental child abduction increased?
15 police forces were asked to provide further information about why non‐parental child abductions had increased in their area. Responses were received from 13 (many offering more than one reason).
● 11 indicated that improvements in the response to Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) had contributed to the increase. Greater awareness and training was reported to have led to more offences been reported and to police being more likely to record an offence. Some police forces suggested that a greater use of Child Abduction Warning Notices may have led to an increase in offences recorded.
● Five police forces provided data on the proportion of non‐parental child abductions which involved CSE in 2014/15: four ranged from 65 to 78 per cent; one was 42 per cent. Two police forces provided comparable data for the previous year. One police force reported that the proportion of CSE cases had increased from 37 per cent in 2013/14 to 67 per cent in 2014/15 (albeit with relatively low numbers). The other police force reported an increase from 54 per cent in 2013/14 to 65 per cent in 2014/15 (with much larger numbers).
● Eight police forces suggested improvements in crime recording and greater adherence to the National Crime Recording Standard guidelines had impacted on the number of offences recorded. Many police forces stressed that, as a result, the number of offences better reflects the true scale of the problem. Two police forces suggested that stricter crime recording processes may have ensured that incidents which would previously have not met an ‘evidential’ threshold to be recorded were now been recorded as a crime.
● Two police forces indicated that a recent focus on intervening in cases of forced marriage may have increased the number of non‐parental child abductions recorded, although neither offered any quantitative analysis. //

AOG,
As has already been pointed out to you, child abuse and non-parental abductions (which your OP links are about), are different things. Your links about child abuse are meaningless in this context. Child abuse mainly takes place in the home or by people known to the child. That has no relevence on the child being able to walk the streets safely.

Its not a growing problem because it was always there - however it is not such a taboo subject as it once was!
My mother told be that her friend was being abused by a lechy uncle - parents knew but dismissed it as 'she was too over familiar' it was her fault as everyone knew to stay away from this uncle.
My grandmother was a Police Matron in a large city - she would tell stories of girls being swayed into no reporting incicidents and instead accepting it was their fault, or being taken away from the family for be a 'badun'
