How These Kids in Scary Situations Got Help

- These kids knew they needed help and they asked for it. In 2018, Emmy McCardell’s quick thinking saved her from a stranger who approached while she was sunbathing. In November, a Pennsylvania boy sensed danger and went into a local business for help. And a Nebraska child who got lost after school approached his friend’s home desperate for assistance. Inside Edition Digital’s Andrea Swindall has more.
The fact that little boy’s reaction when kicked off the bus was that he didn’t want his mom worried about him really hit me. What an angel.

Why would they kicked him out of the bus?
My girl called him a "tricky man"...lol. Thank you parents for teaching your children situational awareness!
alienating them makes it easier to teach children. so calling them tricky people and saying only tricky people can do those actions alienates them.
That was too cute 😂

@@saidwhatt 2 sentences to you is a paragraph? I wish my teachers thought the same way.
@@fargoth391 it was sarcasm stupid. My point was no one needed your two sentences. All they needed to do was agree with the original comment and not explain what a child saying tricky has to do with anything.
This is why parents need to teach their kids about "stranger danger" no matter how uncomfortable. It can save their lives
Yes
YEAH IN MOST CASES IT'S PEOPLE THEY KNOW EVEN THEIR OWN PARENT AS A MAN DID HORRIBLE THINGS TO HIS OWN DAUGHTER & MURDERED HER NOW ADAYS ABSOLUTELY NOBODY CAN BE TRUSTED
Now u can show them vids like this of it actually happening to people so they see how real it is
Strangers and family/friends too. I tell my daughter to be wary of anyone.
Teachers should teach us this! It doesn’t matter what grade, TEACH US THIS STUFF!!!
That fn bus driver needs to be fired and charged for child abuse. Because leaving a child to fend for themselves and put them in harms way IS abuse. Disgusting person.
Absolutely
Exactly!! How awful! 💔
it's child endangerment
Yes!! What happened to the bus driver? He should be prosecuted!
I love how the little girl refers to predators as tricky people. Smart girl
I have a remedy for the pervert, a 10 x 7 foot cell underground away from any city and no privileges what so ever. I am a retired Officer, I would come out of retirement to book the scumbag pervert into jail for Free!!!! The perverts should have to face the families of the children before going to jail and be exonerated of any charges stemming from the visit with the scumbag!
Yeah teaching them the word stranger has been shown to confuse kids, making them think the person will look strange.

I know so lucky he recognised the house and that she was home! 🥺
I remember a lady pulling up one time and said she was looking for her dog. I felt uneasy and ran inside and told my dad. Thankfully, she truly was looking for her dog, but you can never be too safe!
If I was looking for my lost dog I'd probably be so desperate I'd ask anyone and everyone I saw too, so understandable. But in saying that you also did the right thing. I taught my son - as sometimes even children like to be helpful if someone is asking - that if an adult ever asks him for directions or wants help with anything he's to tell them to ask an adult and get out of there quick smart.
@@It-is-me...MelsieMy parents taught me if someone came up to me asking me to help look for their dog, I should run away and go up to them{my parents}
The little boy was lost and all he cared about was his mother worrying about him that's a lil trooper right there
Right! Such a sweetie
I hope the mother reported the bus driver and he was terminated.

The first girl is so aware of danger omg! She took action really fast, so small and so smart.
“Never go with a tricky person because they’ll try and take you to a bad place.” What an excellent age-appropriate way of explaining stranger danger.
Notice how the boy cared more about his mom's feelings than he did that he was lost?? What a son.

@@aoifekennedy9004 u would want your 7 year old to know his adress. What is this?
@@pulsican just because a child knows their address doesn't mean they will know how to navigate unfamiliar streets from the wrong bus stop. Knowing numbers and a street name doesn't mean you can magically always find your way home from anywhere in the world, it just means other people can help you find your way home. And the last thing a child needs is to be wandering around a strange area alone trying to find their home. We don't know if he did or didn't know his address, he did recognize his friend's house and knew how to contact his mother and that is what matters.
1:18 as a teenage girl i am so glad this hand gesture exists. It gives a sense of comfort knowing that if im ever in danger i can make a simple hand gesture and be rescued. The only time i will ever thank tiktok.
That is if others know
If I'd been driving behind that vehicle where the poor woman made the hand signal she would not have received any help because this is the first I've heard of it.
As a human. I'm glad this hand gesture exists!

And the way he held it together until he physically saw a comfortable adult and then just broke down 😢 broke me

This driver has no business being near kids.
I am crying for him!! Like almost bawling crying
It's scary to think there is such horrible scumbags roaming around out there . Shout out to those kids parents and peers for teaching them how to stay safe .
The driver who dropped off that little boy even after he said it was not his stop is a monster! I hope he got fired and that charges were filed against him! If he has no sympathy for his passengers, then he has no business being a driver! If that kid was kidnapped or hit by a vehicle, the driver is the one to blame!
UPDATE: It was a substitute driver and he was fired from the school district. The family used to live somewhere else in another area, so the boy wouldn't have been able to walk home. The records were updated, though, and he was never let out at the wrong address before this. No idea why he was randomly dropped off where he never lived.
Thanks so much for the update. I'm glad some justice was served and that the boy is safe. The nerve of some people! (I'm talking about that awful driver).
That poor little boy. 😢 Omaha is huge and you can easily get lost especially in the suburbs and my GPS is wrong half of the time and I get lost when I go to Omaha. That bus driver clearly didn't give AF about anything but his paycheck. Thank God that sweet boy found his friends home and was safe.

@@Cisc-gl1nz absolutely. I remember the first time I took a bus alone.

Luckily someone helped me. Let's be kind to children. The world itself is scary enough for them. Humans shouldn't be part of that fear.

Now if only parents would recognize the dangers within their own family. If your kids act differently around certain family members, then it's time to stop letting said family members around.

Thank you
I had this happen with a great niece of mine. A strange guy was hanging around the front yard when I noticed he was staring at my niece. I called her dad and we both approached the guy after sending the kids inside, my niece asking her Mom to call the police. Both my Nephew and I were armed and carried openly, we did not unholster our guns, just had our hands on them in case we needed to use them. It turned to be a homeless man from the nearby park and police caught up with him and brought him back to be identified. Not sure if they took him to jail or not, but he never came back!! He he grabbed my niece he would be 6 feet under!!
Sad. No one cared when I went from a daddy’s girl to an angry I hate him don’t touch me girl
@@noywilson me too 😣 but not my dad. My grandpa
That bus driver needs to be arrested in my opinion for child endangerment. So many things could’ve happened to that little boy. THANK GOD he is friends with Max!
The girl that called him a tricky man was so cute good for her
1:15...I've never heard of this hand gesture for help. This needs to be shared to as many people as possible.
Then it loses its effectiveness. That's the big problem with these sort of signals. Once the bad guys know too, it becomes dangerous to use them.
@@mirrors8913 which is true but you should never stop thinking of different ways to help save yourself.
Bad idea
@@biscuitking5444 Doing something is better than doing nothing. Naturally you would use the gesture when the abuser isn't looking in your direction -- loke the way it was done in the video.
@@mirrors8913 The other problem is attention-seeking retards using the hand signal when they're no in any real danger and making it lose its "value"
I was in college then I went to a mall and there's this guy, a tall man with a cap approached me and asked me to go with him. He kept on following me inside the mall no matter how I tell him to leave me alone and I went to the exit/entrance door where there were guards and that's the time he walked away from me.
I saw him again the other day in the mall.😬
Be careful and always make sure you have self defense items on you
You should have filed a police report. It will prevent others from becoming victims.
Not a scammer pretending to be inside edition, cmon man there's better honest ways to make money
Stalker, is more like what he is. If you see him again, call the police or alert them. maybe file for a restraining order
@@CorASMR. I have a knife.
Tricky man is the best way to say it. Not stranger danger.
Because most kids who were saved, were from strangers
I can only imagine the amount of panic and fear just being abandoned at a bus stop like that, at any age -
Just imagine if that last kid took "help" from a stranger and got in the wrong person's car. That bus driver would be SOLELY responsible. That is totally unacceptable to leave a child to fend for themselves. I hope he was let go.
When I was 11 and my brother 8, he got lost in a crowded street in a busy city, when out with my old grandma. My parents were horrified when my grandma came home without the child. While they were panicking and totally lost, a good Samaritan picked up my brother because he was crying in a corner and dropped him home. He was too young to remember the street address but still remembered the street name and we were all outside, and there he came in a strangers vehicle but safe. I'll never forget this incident.
What kind of bus driver tells a kid to get off at the wrong stop?! That stop could have been several neighborhoods away! The kid could have gotten hurt or worse! I’m so glad the boy is safe since he recognized his friends home. But that was SO not okay for the bus driver to do that to a child!!
THAT LAST ONE BROKE MY HEART! 💔😭 THAT POOR LITTLE BOY WAS WORRIED ABOUT HIS MOM WORRYING ABOUT HIM!
the mom in the first video is an AMAZING mother, she taught her kids about strangers danger, and kidnapping, without traumatizing them.
The last one made me cry. My daughter started school on her fifth birthday. At the beginning of December we had a bad snow storm. I picked her up after school everyday but was late by five minutes because of the weather. They went to a sitter in the morning so she didn’t know her way back to the sisters house and the sitters daughter didn’t go to school that day. When I got to the school and was told the teacher made my daughter leave I went to find her. She was about a block away at a stop sign crying because she didn’t know where to go. It beside my heart. I called the Principal the next day and he had no compassion, was told I should have made it in time. She could have been taken. 🤬 As the parents we should have taught her the way to the sisters house.
You should file a complaint to the school district, or go to the press. That's so unacceptable. I'm not a fan of homeschooling, but honestly, with schools like this, kids better stay at home
@@churrothiev8387 I did with the school board but never heard back. That was 29 years ago. We live in a town of 700, they don’t care at all.
My youngest went in the service her Junior year and took Basic the summer before her Senior year, she begged us to let her get her GED so she didn’t have to go back. We let her, she didn’t talk much about the school when she got older so we didn’t realize she hated it.
Because our town is so small the teachers have their favorites, most have kids of course. So their kids and their friends would get away with a lot.
I feel teachers shouldn’t be allowed to teach at their kids school as there’s too much favoritism.
Jesus Christ, only 5 years old. If I saw a 5yo in distress I would make sure to get him home somehow, I wouldn't leave them under any circumstances. And that's as a stranger! For his school to do that is beyong belief.
@@verloser yes
Omg!
Nothing on this planet is more terrifying than your child in danger. Doesn't matter what country you're in, race, religion,etc. It's a global feeling every parent can understand.
I am so proud of every single one of these kids. Good job guys!!
I am literally crying about the boy dropped off by the bus driver. That breaks my heart!!!! Thank God for GOOD PEOPLE and he was smart to recognize a friends home with a trusted adult.
The bus driver story reminds me of two different situations I've had with taxi drivers. When I was around 13, I had to get taxis home from school due to the awkward location and the tiny size of the school. So one day the taxi broke down on an A-road and instead of calling for a backup car or even just letting me call my mum, he told me to get out on the side of the busy carriageway with no footpath. A few miles away from home. What's worse, he'd just picked me up from a school specifically for kids with "special needs", and I told him I'm autistic and had no clue how to get home safely, but he just left. It took me over two hours to find my way home, wandering along the side of the carriageway.
The second time, I was 16 and being picked up at midnight since I didn't want to stay for a sleepover (dangerous and dumb, I know) and my friend had already locked the door behind me and told me not to knock again because her parents would be really mad if I woke them. So I get into this taxi, tell him the address, and he suddenly glares at me. Apparently someone from my apartment building had previously ran out without paying, so he decides to refuse me service, yelling to "get out of his f***ing car." I was crying by then and tried to explain that my mum was waiting at our front door to pay, I had no way to go back inside to my friend and I just wanted to go home, but he was so angry. I ended up calling my mum from the side of the road, sobbing because I was terrified and the area itself was really sketchy. Almost zero streetlights or security cameras, just huge trees and looming walls that could hide potential attackers. Luckily she booked me another taxi that showed up fast and the second driver was really kind and understanding (he had an autistic granddaughter) so he got me home safe. I couldn't imagine leaving a vulnerable person, let alone a child, alone in an unfamiliar place due to impatience or anger.
Please be careful at night
no offense but wth is your mom sending you in taxis all the time when you're still a child.

We all have to pay more attention what's going on around us, too many negative distractions in this world right now. I love that tik tok video where it shows everyone a sign someone is in distress and to call for help. I hope it stays viral. And as a mom myself, when the children were frightened, it really touched my soul, I wanted to protect them too. Thank you parents for teaching your children how to react when things go wrong and approached by weirdos.
@Inside_Edition2...... No
No point having a “special” hand signal when most adults aren’t even on TikTok. 😢
When I was young many of the houses in our neighborhood had a printed cardboard paper with the letter E in upper case letter showing in the living room window. My parents had one and a child used it when being followed by a perve3rt. Those with the letter were screened my local police to ensure the safety of the children. in two different occasions a boy and a girl came to the door, my Mom was a stay at home mother and quickly pulled the child into the house and called the police!!! Both parents came to thank my Mom for her service!!!
@@GM8101PHX Thank you Gregory for telling me that story. I don't think I've heard of people putting the letter E for a safe place for people to go.
@@GM8101PHX if there’s a letter ‘E’ in the window it means a pervert lives there? I respect you for that, I suppose.

“I Dont want my mom to worry about me”
This guy has a heart of gold.. what an upbringing 👏🏻
Aw! I love how the little boy just went to the right place. He is inspiration to other kids who accidently get lost; go to a nearby house and ask for help!
That happened to my son, first day of kindergarten, 5 yrs old. Did not know where he was. Thankfully two older girls stayed with him, until bus came back and picked him up after realizing mistake. Was 20 mins.
my parent’s code word is tricky. if we’re out in public with my little sister and my mom see’s someone suspicious, she’ll find a sentence to say the word “tricky” in. like “oh, (sister’s name) come here, this looks tricky to draw.” or “do you think you could make that tricky thing?” and immediately we’ll go beside her lol. we also have a code word that every family member and friend knows, so if someone comes up to us and says “your parent’s wanted me to come pick you up. im their friend.” we say “what’s the code word?” and if they dont answer it, we get help.
Smart. If I ever decide to have kids, I'll do that, too!
@@rebeccarasberry2459 gives girls
Me and my kids have whole passcode sentences that NO ONE could ever guess. My daughter is 19 now and my son is 14… we still use the pass phrases when they’re out and I send the trigger text. Just so I know they’re good.
I saw a child in the backseat of a car a few weeks ago making the tic tok signal. I followed and called police. That child signaled CONTINUOUSLY while i waa behind them. He's mom finally realized I was following her and she was LIVID at me for calling the cops. She said "does it look like my 9yr old knows about tic tok!?". The boy swore he wasn't making that signal. She told me her son was just "waving". Me and my mom both showed the cops what he was doing. Cops had never heard of that signal before. Bet they looked it up when I left. I was so upset because of the mom's reaction to me. But I couldn't NOT call and it really be an emergency. If something would have happened to that child and I didn't call, I'd never forgave myself.
To me you did the right thing., even women take kids. It's not only men.
you did the right thing
I've been in a similar situation, calling campus security for a dog locked in a car for at least several hours on campus. The owner of COURSE showed up while I was making the call. I think she was a professor. My word, she cussed me out so ugly. Even when security got there, she was literally making faces at me like a child. I just showed no emotion to it. Amazing someone like her is considered an educator.
Honestly, someone who's not done anything wrong, is probably going to at least be understanding. I'm glad you called
The little boy in the gift shop asking the lady to pretend to be his mom? That got me, I welled up. So frightening for these kids
I’m glad these kids made it out alive unlike others who couldn’t escape or get help.
The last situation literally just happened to my two grnaddaughters on Friday. Luckily the eldest knew which way to walk and we met them along the way. My daughter and I were furious! Thank God he was able to get home. It's very terrifying for the kids.
That's bad and all but you don't strike me as a grandma.
Very scary for the kids. When my daughter was in 2nd grade her class stayed a little late after school to practice for a program they were going to be putting on so parents had to come pick them up as the school buses would be long gone. I don't remember what happened but I was late, only by 5 minutes but apparently the only parent that was late because my daughter was the only one that sat down near the entrance and the office to wait for me. The lady in the front office told her she needed to leave and if she had missed the bus then she better start walking home. 😡 Before anything could happen I pulled up and got my daughter. On the way home she starts telling me what happened. You better believe I set that lady straight on never telling my kid to walk home again. She didn't even know how to get home at that age as it was too far!
I can relate to the kid who was left at the wrong stop. When I was in Pre-K I had to take a bus to school. I was only 3 or 4 so I had no idea what my bus number was and got on the wrong bus. When all the stops were completed the bus driver kicked me off at the last stop and left me on a gravel road near a highway. Lost alone and frightened I wandered around for about an hour when two nice ladies found me and tried to help me get home. A hard thing when all I knew about where I lived was it was a blue green house with a basit hound. Thankfully my dad was friends with the PD where I lived and when the cops came to get me the officer told me he'd take me home as my dad and mom were worried. I don't know what happened to the bus driver. But I was told she wasn't working there after that. I'm glad the kid managed to find someone he knew to help as it took me almost 4 hours to get home after my mom realized that I wasn't on the bus I was supposed to be on. No one deserves to go through that. Especially not a kid so young.
God was watching over you, thank God you were okay, and the teacher would not have just been fired, but facing charges of endangering children just for starters and booked into the county jail!!
That's terrifying, the bus driver was crazy! She could at least have dropped you at a police station
@@kawaibakaneko the protocol is for bus drivers to take children to either the bus barn or back to the school if a child is on the wrong bus. She should have took me to one of these places but from what I was told she had something going on that day and didn't want to be delayed with getting off work. She was fired. But that's all I know. That and my parents never let me ride the bus after that till I was 13.
Max is a smart kid, he knew he was in danger, and he cared about his mom more than he did about himself.
The terror in that little boys voice is heart breaking
God bless these little children.
How can you say to a child "get out" when it's not their stop?

OMG MOM I'M FAMOUS
Yeah seriously - I hope that the family presses charges. It was extremely dangerous of the driver to kick a child off of a bus at the wrong stop
this reminds me of a similar situation i went through when i was younger than him. i was 5 years old and we had just moved to a new house. mom drove me to school one day, for me to find out it was a half a day and they told NO BODY. so they send all the kids home, i was the smallest and the only one going in the direction i was going, everyone else had groups but i was alone. so i ask can i go in so i can call my mom then ill leave the grounds. they completely refused to let me call my mom. even standing guard at the entrance so i couldn't walk in. so left with no choice i just started walking. i had no idea where i was nor how to get home. i walked past abandoned houses with large aggressive dogs, past cars who tried to "give me a ride to get candy" keep in mind it was a uniform school so i had to wear skirts, and skirts were super short on me cause of my below average short height. somehow by the love of mother nature i made it home, i knocked on the door to have my mom ask who is it for me to respond with my name, which understandably so left my mom to pause in confusion. when she answered the door to see me as the doorstep, out of breath, face covered in tears....needless to say mom was livid. she went up to the school the next day(since the school way empty by time i got home) and told them "if my daughter didn't make it home...i will burn you all and this building to the ground!! you never have to worry about seeing this child EVER AGAIN" and she got the school closed down right after that. so yea i know exactly how he felt.

It's a must for parents to teach kids that the world isn't always a nice place. You won't be at your kids' side all the time, so preparing them for odd situations could make the difference to safe their life.
That’s the sad part the world should not be a bad place at times I hope stuff like this change in a later time.
The last story had me all teary! The distress in his voice breaks my heart - if that happened to one of my kids, I would have been outraged too. I hope that bus driver got fired!
The third one got me.. hearing that boy clearly in distress. Got me tearing up.
Thank God 🙏
This little boy made it home safe to his mom.l hope that the bus driver was fired.
Yeah... especially when the little boy said that wasn't his stop!!!
I wonder how many times the bus driver did this...doesn't seem random. Probably did it to a few others too which is terrifying to think about.
@@Inside_Edition2..... No
I’m very grateful that I’m 21 now and I’ve never been in a situation as a kid, teen, or adult where I had to make decisions like these. I’ve never been approached like this or assaulted in any form and I thank God
Same here. I was never too friendly a kid.
Good for u czennie!!!
Yeah same here, my dumbass would absolutely be taken
That boy who said, "I dont want my mom to worry about me" reminded me of my childhood. I was more worried about my parents feeling bad for me than actually addressing my own trauma.
I’m literally in tears watching this because these things could have gone in a different direction.
Sad how many predators lay in wait for vulnerable or impressionable kids and/or adults.
Sheesh, poor kid. I know that feeling of getting dropped off at a completely neighborhood without knowing how to get back home. The fact he was more worried about his momma being worried about him says it all, glad he made it home safe 🙏
When I was in 1st grade, school got out early and I took the bus home. My mom was under the impression that it got out at the regular time so she had gone to pick me up but I wasn’t there.
I walked to our apartment and knocked on the door, expecting her to be home, though she wasn’t. Since this was before I had a key, I could do nothing but stand on our porch. I was scared, and one of my friends offered to let me come to her apartment (we lived in the same complex and it was right across the parking lot), but I refused, as I didn’t want my mom to get back and find me not there. So my friends waited with me on the porch until she returned. She had been really worried. I'm thankful to my friends for that. They were so great.
Everytime I hear that little boy's, my heart breaks. He's incredibly sweet. And and adult completely failed him.
Its so sad you can't let your kids play in the front yard anymore unless your right there next to them. So glad your daughter knew what to do and is safe.
Right nothing but creeps out here
Geeat job Quincy! You were really scared and still did the smart thing. That's bravery.
When I was in grade eight, our bus driver had to take a different route from school because of an accident. Noticing we were off route, MANY of the little kids began crying and we older kids couldn't calm them down. At our bus stop we older kids explained to the waiting parents the whole situation. I'll never forget the fear of those little kids who thought they were being kidnapped that day.
That first little girl was quite wise for her age.
she knew exactly what to do.
I really wish all kids were like these and I really wish all parents is good and patient enough to teach their kids to be like these
This one boy in my old townhouse neighbourhood of Courtenay came our house in tears. I knew the boy and some of his family. I was living with my two roommates at the time and all of us home. I was in the kitchen doing something and that's when he rang our doorbell. He said he was scared and his parents hadn't come home yet. We were all concerned, so I asked if he would like some company until his parents got home. One of my roommates called the RCMP, while I went to his place with a deck of cards to play with. We played a game of go-fish. The police came and I told them what occurred. As I was explaining, the boy's parents came home. After a while, I went back home and continued my home activity.
🌸 why did that bus driver do that, the child told him it wasn’t his stop. Seeing him cry like that just tore me up, far more less for his poor mom. What if something terrible happened to him, I shudder to think.
I’m just so happy he recognised his friend’s house and was able to get help. Just a miracle the mother just arrived two minutes earlier. If she wasn’t home, he would have walked away searching for help elsewhere getting more lost
The Max's Mom situation just tore my heart up. smh God protect the vulnerable children of this world.
That is a good expression to teach kids "Tricky person". Explains these people well in a child appropriate language
Many years ago myself (a teen at the time) and my mom were home, and suddenly she stood up and said "do you hear that?" and I went "nope" and then she stood in silence for a minute before suddenly leaving the house. She was gone for a while, and it turns out a little boy had been dropped off at the wrong stop and was lost. He was crying outside, and my mom had heard him. She walked with him to the complex's head office, where they contacted his dad who came and got him. It's wild to me that some bus driver's don't confirm with the children that it's their stop before just leaving.
I’m glad the boy was able to find a friends house and there was a trusted adult there to help him get home
I cried when I saw this.he was so scared..but has a great memory.Your'e your own Hero.Thanking you friends mom as well. 🙏♥️👌
I don't have a child, and even then my heart was pounding! I can only imagine how parents would react to these videos. I wish we didn't have to teach children about the monsters that lurk, but this is an important lesson and could save a life.
I'm glad these kids were taught very well about stranger danger; it helps a lot.
Maxes mom, love you!! Little man, you were soooo brave!! So proud of you!!
To Max's mother, THANK YOU.
Good parenting literally saves lives 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The last kid's situation was heart breaking. We all had tragic incidents when we were young coz I also had one when I was four...gladly these kids r able to handle it so I hope this can be a lesson to other parents
What a smart kid looking for help
"I don't want my mom to worry." I WASN'T EXPECTING THIS TO BE WHAT MADE ME CRY.
When I was 8 years old, I was playing outside an apartment complex, this lady and a man were looking over the brick fence and wanted me to go with them. They said they had candy and cookies. I hid behind some bushes because i got scared. As i peaked to see if they had left, they were still there, they saw me peek and began calling me again. I got out of the bushes and ran off the other side of the apartment complex. Got into my friend's house, and never came out until my mom picked me up. Never again i went.I'm 35 now by the way.
