"Is this your mother?" asked the first woman to the child. "Yes" replied the kid.

"Are you sure????" she demanded, holding the sprog back from its now-horrified mother being accused of potentially abducting her own child.

The child confirmed and the reunion was complete. It was wierd though, that for a moment the non-parent seemed to have 'legitimate' control over the fate of the child.
You would think in that situation the actual parent would have just produced a phone with a bazillion photos of said child. That's what happens every time i meet a parent these days
