When I was in kindergarten, my mother received a survey call (popular in the 90s), and when the questions became strangely personal and she said she wasn’t comfortable, the man called my mother by name and said that he had me (also used my name).

My father, who was a cop, picked me up from school immediately in uniform and the cruiser. I’ll never forget my principal blocking my huge father from the doorway and asking me, “Do you know this man?” I was just excited to leave school early and take a ride in the cop car.
