And then nothing else on these kids. There has been story after story on that other situation, but nothing else on this one. Sad. I hope they are ok. I'm sure if my daughter or son was missing I would be freaking out. We can't even find out what the reason for concern is for these two kids if they only ran away from home. That's why I was wondering if they were in danger or if somebody was after them or something. But NOOOO, still story after story on somebody that is safe and sound and didn't want to be found.

this is to wird because normally they dont report runaways . i have a friend her daughter was a runaway the police didn't report them as a runaway .she had the runarounds,and didn't know where to turn till she called the news station and they showed pics of her daughter,because the police didn't do anything!

DO they normally report runaways like this? Surely these arn't the first kids to do it. There must be something else behind this.

Would help if this story got the coverage that Garland's got!!!!

Boy, the articles about these 2 kids are kind of sketchy. Why are they considered "endangered"? Are they running from something or someone who wants to harm them? I know it's not good for two 16-year-olds to be on the loose, but what the heck is going on?
