I just watched that show too...and although it was good, it seemed pretty commonsensical to me. The self defense, screaming and kicking thing is to get the child on the ground and in a less physically vulnerable position...as the lady said, how hard is it to pick up a tantruming toddler and put them in the car? Dr Phils points were good in relation to fear; they don't need to be scared. Something as simple as, 'don't go with strangers, if you feel scared tell someone etc.' I'm sure there would be Dr Phils tips etc online. Was a good episode.
