> Kids [...] face legitimate higher odds of crime or kidnapping. Because in the US they’re victims of gunshot, kidnapping, physical/sexual assault

This does not ring true at all.

Random kidnappings of children (i.e. by a stranger, not a parent, relative, or other acquaintance) are vanishingly rare in the US, to the extent that they typically make national news when they do occur. Random violence against children (again, by a stranger), even more so.
