Every Mother's Worst Fear is a 1998 American television movie starring Cheryl Ladd, Jordan Ladd and Ted McGinley. This film is a cautionary story of cyberspace, kidnapping and the dangers of chat rooms.

Synopsis

Martha Hoagland (Jordan Ladd) is a 16-year-old girl suffering through her parents' (Cheryl Ladd, Robert Wisden) recent divorce, her mother working long hours and being recently dumped by her boyfriend. Feeling lonely and seeking solace, she turns to an online chat room. Martha believes she is chatting with a boy around her age, when in reality she is chatting with an internet predator involved in a cyber-kidnapping ring (Ted McGinley). Martha is lured to join her new "friend", who claims he never sent her a ticket out; she is then brought to "The Scanman", and it is up to Martha's mother Connie to rescue her daughter.
