Freedom? 6 year olds don’t get freedom, they get guidance and protection. Don’t let kids walk to and from places. Crime is opportunity. Don’t neglect kids. It’s your job to protect them, otherwise don’t have them.

This is the first missing person case of which I ever became aware. I was ten years old.

@Harmlesspotato572
Why would any parent let their 6 year walk alone in any city. Just asking for trouble.
@Iflie
We used to get warned about " child lurers" that would offer you candy to come with them and we'd warn eachother. You can warn kids like that without freaking them out.

@kellwng
Anyone think his mom had something to do with it, or is that only exclusively when men are responsible for a child's welfare?

I’ve always wondered if someone had lured him..made him want to walk to the bus stop alone.
