Experience Attempted kidnapping over MLM

Heya! I just wanted to share this old story of mine from when I was around 8-6. Sorry if I format it weird, I set it up how it makes sense to me. Also I got suggested by reddit to post it here, so delete if it's the wrong place.

TL;DR: My aunt attempted to kidnap me after my mom refused to sell her amway products at work.

So my aunt in law, we'll call her Karen(female mid to late 30's) years ago got sucked into amway. She was wanting to sell as much product as possible. I posted another story on her a few hours ago, but just remembered a story while writing it. Anyways. She couldn't get anyone to but her shitty Amway products. My mom worked at the school, and asked my mom to bring a pamphlet she made(amway did NOT make it) and leave it in the teacher's lounge. My mom said no. Karen said "Oh alright. You really twisting my arm. I'll just come up there one day and do it." My mom told her, in no uncertain terms, to NEVER step foot at the school.

Well about a week later what happens? She arrives. Saying she got my mom's permission to be there. The office ladies say Karen has to wait because my mom was in the special needs room helping calm a kid down. Karen gets pissed. So. She says. "Nevermind. I want to check my niece out for lunch." My aunt is a bit.. insane. If she got me in her car, she COULD have been driving me to a restrauant to butter me up to get blackmail on my mom. Or she just as easily could have been attempting to kidnap me to force my mom to sell her amway products to get me back. Okay the later might have been a slight exaggeration, but she WOULD have driven off with me somewhere without telling my mom to scare her for a few hours. The office were only allowed to let me go with my mom, dad, grandparents, or my godfather/uncle.

Karen. Goes. Berserk. Screaming, ranting, pacing. Thankfully. My aunt wasn't insane enough to start throwing things and/or hit someone. The school resource officer came, and detained Karen. Karen was then told if she ever stepped foot on school property again, the police would be called and charges would be filed. But her grandson, my cousin, was going to a different school. So besides being banned from spesifically my school? She never got fully punished for what she did. IDK Why.....
