What is a child predator "lure"?
A lure is a device to remove a child from their world or their comfortable environment, for purposes of sexual exploitation. Lures come in many forms. The most obvious lure is the puppy lure. Little boy, little girl, could you come and help me find my puppy? At which point that child is then removed from their environment and is poised for exploitation. There are other more insidious types of lures. Somebody could be driving by in a vehicle, roll down a window and say, "could you come here and give me directions"? Then grab the child into the vehicle as soon as they are lured over. There are other types of lures, such as the fame lure. Oh, you're such a pretty little girl. I'd love to take some pictures of you. Would you mind accompanying me? I could turn you into a famous movie star, is another typical kind of lure. So, lures are only limited by the imagination of the predator, and unfortunately as sick as their imaginations are they often times tend to be very vivid. Which again is why it's important to give kids good knowledge, so they can avoid those types of come-ons?
