Discussion Question: Do you believe that parental kidnapping should be treated less severely from a law/punishment standpoint than kidnapping by a stranger? | Online Homework Aiders

I’m stuck on a Law question and need an explanation.

Chapter 3 in your textbook and Unit 2B in Canvas include discussion of parental kidnapping/family abduction. According to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC), of the 27,000 missing children reported to NCMEC in 2017, 5% were family abductions. According to the NCMEC, family abductions or parental kidnappings typically occur “when a child is taken, wrongfully retained, or concealed by a parent or other family member depriving another individual of their custody or visitation rights.”
