Please keep an eye out for your kids when going to these shopping places. Thanks for reading. Sam's Clubs told me they knew of no such incidents actually occurring. Code Adam is a special alert sent over the public address system in Wal-Mart and Sam's Club stores alerting employees of a missing child. While the exact incident described in this story has never been documented, it obviously contains a grain of truth.
Child abductions do occur and they're every parent's worst nightmare.
The legend functions as a cautionary tale. People should consult their conscience before doing so, because the net effect is to generate real terror based on an incident that never happened. Scaring the pants off them is another. Safety matters, but so does the truth. Subscribe to the About Freebies Newsletter and find the best free stuff on the Net.
