Is the reason they still call it kidnapping when its an adult because everyone says theres a still a child living in all of us?

According to an online etymology dictionary I just consulted, the original use of the term did apply to stealing children for the purpose of using them as servants or slaves.

We know what it means regardless of who is abducted, forced abduction is probably a better term

@cherokeepatti mmh isn't that under the law also forced? or myabe technically the abduction isn't forced the but the keeping you locked up is

@popmol not like holding a weapon or grabbing someone off the street.
