I am also very strong willed, when I was 6 I was ALMOST sexually molested but I beat the guy at his own game and escaped, but I also had a little sister and an older brother who were very gullible. We're all in our 50s now and they can both still be taken by a slick salesman.
I'd like to know what you did, unless you are joking. I always think of the story by O'Henry "Ransom of Red Chief" about how the kid gets the kidnappers to release him. Of course, today, they'd just kill and eat the kid.
