Daughter - The daughter can represent what happens in the marriage, or 'union', of the parents. The child is what has arisen from the bonding, however momentary, of two people. In dreams, the child is sometimes used to depict how the relationship of parents is faring. (IE: a sick daughter might show the feelings in the relationship being 'ill'. A rebellious child may suggest the parent feels their relationship is conflicted...a kidnapped child may suggest that there is something missing or 'gone' from the marriage, or relationship.).
For a mother to dream of her daughter - feelings of support or companionship, feelings of not being alone in the area of emotional bonds. Also, a comparison of oneself at that age...( one's own urges, difficulties, hurts that may still be operative). The mother might see the daughter's youth, opportunity, abed have feelings about that. In this way, the daughter may represent her sense of lost opportunity and youth, or even envy.

Kidnapped - The main theme in abduction dreams is fear. You may be afraid of losing a very important part of himself or of losing his safest and most familiar surroundings. Also, the dreamer may be afraid of leaving his home, childhood, familiar support group, or long standing ideas. These type of dreams may be most prevalent during times of psychological or physical transition and during stressful times of life when the future is somewhat uncertain.
It may also indicate that you are not letting aspects and characteristics of that person be expressed within you. You are trying to contain and/or suppress those qualities of the kidnapped person.
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the area of the 'self' that pertains to you:
Have you been told that you are 'not allowed' to do something, or feel as though you are being treated like a child?
Is there something, or situation, that is causing you to feel like a child, or as though you are acting like one?...(an unreasonable or unexplainable fear, or any childlike behavior)


Alternately in the area dealing specifically with your daughter:
Does the child's other parent live in the home with you? If not does he/she take the child for visitation...and you are afraid the child will not be returned to you?
Have you recently enrolled your daughter in a day care?
Do you have any valid reason to think that your child could be taken away from you?
Do you feel guilty in some area involving your daughter?
Did something happen to make you feel neglectful, or that you are a 'bad parent'?

I hope this gives you some insight to this nightmare. Best of luck!

You're welcome....hope you feel better soon.

Sweet Dreams,
