HuskerDo2 2738 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I wonder where they get their stats from. Unless all of the children were recovered there is little way for them to know the cause of the kids leaving home. More useless info from the authorities? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
