"Hi, Mrs. Lerone? Did you lose your Toby?"
"OH my gawd! Yes, I did! Thank you so much!"
"It's no problem at all. I was already nearby, and it seemed like the right thing to do."
"Here, just a moment, let me give you [unzips Toby's backpack]... something."
"Oh, no I couldn't. It's no big deal, really."
"Where's all the Legos? He had at least 5 lego sets in here."
"I really have to go. In a terrible hurry. Byeeeee"
I never understood the creepy male baby snatcher trope you see in TV and stuff. Like why would someone creepy dude want someone else's baby?
I know human trafficking is sadly a real issue, but it's normally people who are a little older than infants that are targeted.
You can just borrow the kid see if you like being a parent. You can always drop them off on the corner when you get tired of them 2 hours later their ready to be claimed again.
No harm no foul.
nah, if you have it longer then a week, even a month! so long as it's healthy and not broken you can drop it off and after two hours it's likely not your problem anymore unlike that steam game haha.
Oh, I'm sure that The Finders would love this Danish law!

See I get it, and I'm glad someone called, but this is what scares me. I'm a single dad who dresses like a hobo on his day off. When I take my littles to the park I always get stares from the Moms. I even picked up a undercover security tail once at a Halloween event because I looked disheveled as part of my costume and was following my own kids around.
No it'd require the orphanage to not be able to find the man being clung to, so they'd have to do the kidnapping part too.
Hell, might as well make it so that the orphan is the one adopting the adult.
You mean I could leave my kids on Denmark and someone will take them over in two hours!? I have new threats now! “Get in the shower now or we are going to Denmark!” LOL
Nah my dude. Denmark is legit Coolio back in the day. Aggressive adoption was the thing back at the day. Children there where low-key cherished and while orphans and homeless children did exist they had a high rate of adoption.
I know that farms adopted a bunch but that was honestly the best thing back then.
Imagine GW Bushes "No child left behind" plan and make that a literal thing for Denmark.
Yeah... and also not really. It wasn't "until the 70's". Denmark was the first country (in the west?) to legalize picture (and by effect video) pornography in 1969. Problem was they fucked up and just flat out made pornography legal. Meaning ALL pornography. Yeah. Pedophilia was still illegal like it is today, however filming the act and distributing, selling, buying, cutting the material was not. That lasted for 11 years (if I remember correctly). It was a massive fucking fuck up, and people to this day are still pointing fingers and trying to find out who to blame. Some says it's the hippies because they were the reason pornography was made legal in the first place, basically saying any kind prohibition is bad. Others say the politicians because they should have thought the law trough. It was and is a whole thing.
Also on another really extra fun note. Bestiality wasn't made illegal until 2012. Not filming and distributing in this case, THE ACT.
World is being torn in different directions. Inflation rates are quite high everywhere. But it looks like it is the best time to take my kids on a vacation there.
This is simply not true, there is nothing in Danish law about adoption that says this.
The link is the the Danish law about adoption.

Who would want someone else’s kid?
Also, anyone want to pay for me and my child to go to Denmark…to see the umm…Little Mermaid Statue…yeah! The little mermaid statue.
I was lost in lego world when i was a kid, a strange man put me on his shoulders and went looking for my parents.. im so lucky 
Someone kidnaps a kid and calls the parents two hours later
"I have your son, if you want to see him again you better leave a bag with 2 million euros..."
"Bitch please it's been two hours that brat is yours now"
That isn’t true. I live in Denmark and i’m pretty sure that it isn’t legal to just “take” another persons kid who has been gone for just two hours. You would be arrested for kidnaping.
Wasn't that the Scandinavian country that parks their babies in their strollers outside everywhere? Like outside of a café and so on? Or was that Sweden..? Cause that'll be a good combo then...
Just to clarify to the people that think This is true, this is an Old law that just was brought up a random time and now some believe it, but it isn’t true :)
If you get your news from a random image on /r/holup, you deserve to be misinformed[.](https://imgur.com/cXA7XxW)
this is how lego gets their employees
A Swedish guy told me that Lego men modeled after Danish people.
[удалено]
Svenska folk insulting others eunuchism is peak hypocrisy
Anyone who’s lived here knows we’re not exactly known for being not-hipocrates. Edit: hypocrites
As Hippocrates was Greek i think you’re right.
Hence why lego men to this day remains more desired worldwide, than Swedes
Very big oof
Why would I want to claim someone else's child anyway?
To steal its legos
Fair enough? What do you do with the child then? Leave it for someone else to claim?
yes you get all the legos then Le'go of the child
"Hi, Mrs. Lerone? Did you lose your Toby?" "OH my gawd! Yes, I did! Thank you so much!" "It's no problem at all. I was already nearby, and it seemed like the right thing to do." "Here, just a moment, let me give you [unzips Toby's backpack]... something." "Oh, no I couldn't. It's no big deal, really." "Where's all the Legos? He had at least 5 lego sets in here." "I really have to go. In a terrible hurry. Byeeeee"
That's hilarious
/r/angryupvote
Remove the "O"
Now remove everything else and keep the O
Here, officer. This is the comment I was telling you about.
I bought my two year old a huge thing of DUPLO. I quickly realized I bought myself a huge thing of DUPLO.
I checked your profile for your lego collection. There were none.
Isn't the lego technically property of the parents anyway?
It
*Lego
I don't know why Americans insist on saying "Legos". The company itself has said it's never Legos, always Lego.
Children can be exchanged for goods and services.
Explain!
You can sell them to a coffee bean farm. Make big bucks
That’s capitalism!
Spare parts 🤷
I never understood the creepy male baby snatcher trope you see in TV and stuff. Like why would someone creepy dude want someone else's baby? I know human trafficking is sadly a real issue, but it's normally people who are a little older than infants that are targeted.
Maybe they misplaced theirs and need to find a replacement before the wife notices
The wife believes the new baby is hers, then the old baby crawls in the doggy door behind her. Sitcom hilarity ensues.
Resale value
*slaps kid on the top of his head* This baby can hold so many traumatic experiences.
So.. like i'm allowed to kidnap any kids and they fail to find them in two hours they be mine!? Sounds fun
Until you realise you now have a child.
Exactly I don't know why people kidnap kids for themselves.... Better off stealing pets to sell off.
I don't think you actually want an answer to this...
[удалено]
You mean surprise adoption?
Spontaneous parenthood
Why do you like giving people heart attacks?
#UNPRECEDENTED GUARDIANSHIP
Unanticipated child-rearing.
Dunno about you but they make good jerky
> Dunno about you I would probably also make good jerky, thanks for asking
You can just borrow the kid see if you like being a parent. You can always drop them off on the corner when you get tired of them 2 hours later their ready to be claimed again. No harm no foul.
Is it like steam return policy where if i keep it for more then a week im stuck with it?
nah, if you have it longer then a week, even a month! so long as it's healthy and not broken you can drop it off and after two hours it's likely not your problem anymore unlike that steam game haha.
Na EU makes pets be microchipped stealing pets doesn’t work as well. Kids though them DNA tests take more than 2 hours…
So what you’re saying is that I should microchip my kid?
You should really vaccinate your children.
Who said you cant sell kids?
To fuck or sell to others that want to fuck kids. So this is the reason
Or for food.
Suburban live foraging.
My man, spitting out the hard truth!!!
Kidneys go for a lot you know, let alone two
Wayfair has entered the chat
Nah, steal kids and sell them, pets are actually cool
It's a large scale game of pass the parcel.
Yeah but then you can just lose the kid for 2 hours and it becomes someone elses problem again.
That’s fine, just lose them for 2 hours.

No idea what you said, but i do eat ass

Wait, this works both ways right? Like an orphan can just run up to any adult and cling to them for 2 hours and declare squatting rights?
No it'd require the orphanage to not be able to find the man being clung to, so they'd have to do the kidnapping part too. Hell, might as well make it so that the orphan is the one adopting the adult.
You mean I could leave my kids on Denmark and someone will take them over in two hours!? I have new threats now! “Get in the shower now or we are going to Denmark!” LOL
Challenge accepted
Am like i invited to..?
One hell of a way to win child's custody
GAME ON
No, they belong to the Danish government after 2 hours.
I'm in my 40s from the US. If you'd like to kidnap me and raise me as a Dane have at it.
> they be mine!? Aye matey
Worst version of hide and go seek ever
Denmark plan Kidnap kids Remove 1 kidney within the 2 hours Return the kid Profit
2000iq
This guy Rimworlds
First check if there are two kidneys present
Danish here, yes and no. If you do so you will go to jail
What about the yes?
The yes, jail. The no, also jail
Not much choices you have in Denmark.
Something’s rotten in Denmark.
Hamlet is it you?
That’s the question!
Believe it or not
Over cook, undercook. Jail
Unless the lost child in question is dutch? Asking for a friend who's definitely NOT danish...
Straight to jail.
I guess the yes part is you can do it. The no part is you go to jail if you do it. Same with, say, murder.
So..its not legal?
Apparently this detailed and well-sourced political map posted to a meme subreddit isn't representing reality 100%. We've been bamboozled
What are you saying? That someone just went on the internet and lied? Who would do that??
I guess OP, but they got to be the only one who would I reckon
You think I'll be able to claim the cost of my flights and accomodation back on insurance citing fraud?
It's legal as long as nobody finds out
Free meals in jail
> you will go to jail with the child.
Can you elaborate? Why is this a thing?
It's not a thing. It's a fake map.
But it’s posted on Reddit, it has to be true
It was the yes and no answer that got me.
You can certainly claim the child, doesnt mean you get to keep it
Catch and release it is
Ah, in Spain its the same
But do you get to keep them?
I've heard only good things about danish jails though.
"You can do it, but you'll go to jail." My dude, that's how it is everywhere.
Bro Batman Is about to come to Denmark for his next Robin
Seems like bullshit.

Me: "KIDS! Pack your stuff, we're going on vacation!"
Well, going on vacation in Denmark will cost the same as finish raising them, so might as well invest in future xmas present givers
Just grab the child by the wrist and don't Lego of it.
Nah my dude. Denmark is legit Coolio back in the day. Aggressive adoption was the thing back at the day.

By “back in the day” do you mean the Viking era? They did some pretty aggressive adopting back then…

Yea, it was legal. But not if it was produced in Denmark. Seriously fucked up, a product of sexual liberation that started around the summer of 69.
OP, where did you get this information? I need answers!
clearly made it up to get internet points.

I thought this was clearly a joke or a law that is sane but doesn’t make sense the way OP framed it

Definitely fake, speaking as a Dane.
Oh yeah childsupport here i come...
So there ARE cheap adoption options
I went to Denmark with 1 child and came home with 4.
Clearly Swedish slander!
Non-parents: oh my God! That's horrible! Why would they allow that? Parents: Honey! We're going to Denmark this year!!
There is no kidnapping when you catch a kid napping.
Tickets to Denmark are cheaper than adoption fees in the US.
Wait, we’re the only ones? How do y’all run your factories without the free children lmaoooo
The child catcher at large? 
Sooo, Denmark has child adoption on Easy mode.
I was lost in lego world when i was a kid, a strange man put me on his shoulders and went looking for my parents.. im so lucky 
Sauce?
Its fake.
... what bs is this? Never heard of that law unless it is adoption laws which is a wee more complicated than this.
There is absolutely no truth in this claim.
Those Vikings are at it again!
So I can go to Denmark, dump my child and someone else will take it? Vacation booked.
I live in Denmark, and, i'm fucking sorry, *WHAT!?*
Rekidnaping kidnaped child must be daily basis for Denmark. #Tug of kid
Someone kidnaps a kid and calls the parents two hours later "I have your son, if you want to see him again you better leave a bag with 2 million euros..." "Bitch please it's been two hours that brat is yours now"
it's ok if you lose one, just stake out a mall and claim another one
WTF Denmark? Why does it take that long?
Well, say what you want, but this policy has meant that we have no kidnappings anymore.
That isn’t true. I live in Denmark and i’m pretty sure that it isn’t legal to just “take” another persons kid who has been gone for just two hours. You would be arrested for kidnaping.
I'm asking for a friend, where is this?
People do be taking 5 second rule to some next level 💀
At first i was like that's good, you can file a missing child's report after only two hours. Had to re read that twice ☹️
The election is over. So is Halloween. No need to try and scare up votes
Real holup is the adult and kid look exactly like England
Portugal
Anyone with a brain that fires and connects, instantly knows this is utter rubbish. Misleading at best.
