George Washington Carver was born into slavery. When George was only a week old, he, a sister, and his mother were kidnapped. His mother and sister were never seen again--NOTE, no where does it say she was sold into slavery, and in fact, she had already been a slave before the kidnapping! Soon after the kidnapping, George was found and ransomed, and was raised by his mother's former owner, Moses Carver. This occurred in Arkansas during the Civil War (1864 or 1865) when slavery was still practiced in the South. George Washington Carver later distinguished himself as an innovative scientist.
The sad truth about this is that there were many cases of of women with newborns (especially male babies) or children being kidnapped with their mothers in European colonization of Africa and throughout history.

Why do kids from a recent divorce where fater is a narcissist fall prey to joining father in alienating mother from the kids?
When my parents got divorced, I sided with each of them at different times; I would be mad at my mother one day, and mad at my father the next. They may be feeling like their mother is abandoning or ignoring them, or they may just be angry about the divorce. All I can say is that in a few months, they'll probably want to alienate the father.
