At first I would like to thanked you for your discussion on a important topic. Every parents want to give their children something special and for this we often do not think about its bad effect. This things need to be considered.

But I know for sure this themed bag was done because of the issue of knowing the kids whereabouts "just in case". But anyhow, your logic is correct and should seriously be looked upon to.

By the way, I looked through the entire kid\'s catalog of LL Bean and did not see one pack monogramed with a full name on it. Personally, in my house with multiple book packs, the initials are helpful to identify whose pack belongs to who. FYI~ I would never let my kids \"hang a keychain\" or some other dangling thing of their pack that may be caught in a bus door.

Yeah, thats true. A better solution than even monogramming, if you cannot inconvenience your little muffin for safety\'s sake, is to put a piece of colored tape on her bag. But thats just my humble opinion.

These companies do not make people spend more money to choose monograming. It is just an option. By the way, I looked through the entire kid\'s catalog of LL Bean and did not see one pack monogramed with a full name on it. Personally, in my house with multiple book packs.

This is one little thing that can make a big difference. And I don\'t disagree with ReviewDad that the manufacturer...especially one as \"family-oriented\" as Bean SHOULD be an advocate for child safety through awareness.

Regardless of what you want to believe about how safe your kid is at school, practice or ballet or how Mayburyesque you think the community you live in is, child abductions are just as likely where you live as they are anywhere else.

This is complete BS, People need to take care of their own business and stop looking for excuses for their mistakes and/or stupidity. Kids need to learn personal responsibility from their parents, not the blame game which is what you are preaching imo, come on.

If you’re not already aware of the risk represented by having your kid’s name prominently displayed on their bag, let me bring you up to speed. The notion is that if someone knows your kid’s name, it’s that much easier to lure them away or pose as a rightful guardian thereby greatly enabling an abduction.

I believe that monogramming on bags kids carry to school, sports or other activities anywhere where mom and dad aren’t right by their side the whole time is a bad idea

Duffel bags and do your customers a service by explaining why you’re not offering it in your glossy, twice a quarter catalogs. What better way to get a safety message out?! The paper’s already bought and the postage is already paid for!

Yeah I agree with you. Children should be kept under view.

Yap, I completely agree that monogramming the children’s name on their bag is a rubbish idea and it can put our child in terrible danger. In my neighborhood, a eight years old kid used such a bag. One day a kidnapper the child by using the simplest trick. The kidnapper read the name of him. And the next day, while the kid was playing in the field the kidnapper called the kid by his name and convinced him to believe that he is the kid’s uncle.
