Oh, kids do tell stories.
Not so long ago there was a piece of news warning about a woman driving a red car and stalking kids!
The woman in question recognized herself in the story and contacted the police. She had seen a kid about 8-10 pulling off snow sticks beside the road - the sticks that will guide the snow plow drivers.
She had followed the kid to his home yard, stopped the car and given him a lecture. The boy then made up a story at home, father called the police and the press. School warned other kids of a possible stalker. Two more reports from concerned parents followed, their kids telling of a woman seen in a red car with silent man sitting at the back trying to lure kids in their car... There was no man at all.
