You would literally do anything as a parent to keep a bad guy, a predator, from coming into your house at night and stealing your kid out of their bedroom, wouldn't you, Tucker?
Yes, I would.
You'd rip their throat out with your bare teeth if that's all you had.
They would die.
They would die.
They just would.
But they're getting to your kids as you're sitting there watching the news or football and your kids back there on their iPhone on some app talking to somebody they think is one person, but it's somebody else.
