One should also ask the BM, if this is right and if she had that impression of him also. After all she had visits with her little boy (supervised once by 3 guards) and could tell from her point of view, if he was really that fearful (for example to climb a tree) and shy with strangers (for example the guards and people/children in the malls). Little W was used to day care, he was used to holidays, he had "a lot of" parents/relatives, he was wild and boisterous and loud and "a little devil" as FGM said on the day, he disappeared. From my experience as a parent

, such a child mostly isn't very shy (if the parents with their prohibitions and behavioral rules aren't around). MOO
To the "roaring":
Maybe, he was roaring at someone on the grass
like he was roaring at the FFC, when she took an unwanted photo of him. IMO, he didn't like that at that moment and I always thought, it's to be seen. It was a troubled morning for the little boy already and maybe, a friendly abductor had an easy going. MOO
