Kids are rebellious af these days because nobody wants to raise them correctly, just look at the news. I mean what is the total number of kids in Ohio million or so? Are you saying that out of a million children there wont being at lest a few hundred acting up like this? Maybe when these kids get found they should remove the "missing kid" report statistic?

Dayton Ohio used to be the predator capital of this nation. My father took our family out of Ohio in the early 70’s. We lived in one of the safest neighborhoods in Dayton. There were rapists, child molesters residing in our midst. The neighborhood would tell others everything for the most part and warn the school kids who to avoid and why. There were the scouts coming in the neighborhood, looking for kids to use in drug and prostitution rings. We looked out for one another. I’m glad my family was transplanted into the Midwest.

Seems like a coverup. The media is trying to say this is not as bad as it appears because “the vast majority” left voluntarily. But my guess is that the majority of missing kids are always majority voluntarily. The question to ask is has the number of suspected abductions increased greatly? If the number of overall missing kids has gone up significantly the answer is likely yes. Another important question to ask is if the % of missing kids attributed to suspected abduction out of the overall missing kids number has increased or not

​@@iwuvpiesgaming9164While the post above is Crude and Rude, it is Sadly, accurate. Better said, according to FBI DHHS Statistics children, and in particular, Teens from Black and Latino families are Statistically much more likely to Runaway than Whites or Asians. Reasons are variable, some debatable. Single Mothers are a significant indicator. Social Scientists and "Children's Advocates" present a plethora of factors. As I recall, the teens of a stable two-parent family in the Suburbs, are Statistically less likely to Runaway than a comparable White teen. Unfortunately, more than 75% of Black kids are raised by Single Mothers (or Grandmothers, our Aunts, etc.) Too many people fail to agree about the Primary Causes; not to mention probable solutions.

[@lillycurlyandmom]

I feel like if these were white kids there would be much more attention given to this situation. I live in a large city in California and I'm not hearing about a thousand missing children in my city. It seems like Ohio isn't doing much to resolve this.

1000% they don’t care

[@paladinsix9285]

"Just" 1,000 in Dayton, Ohio. Over 100,000 children and teens go missing in California every year! Not to mention tens of thousands of teens and children Trafficed To California, and tens of thousands of children and teens Trafficed into California across the Mexican border (originating from many nations)! Of course, kids are Trafficed out of California too. (Look up the "I-5 Corridor" also Trafficking to Vegas, NYC, and other prime markets for children and teens.) Latino teens (even tweens 10 to 12) are abducted (or Trafficked from Mexico and Central America) to be Slave Labor on illegal Marijuana grow operations; some are sexually victimized too. Many are comparatively "lucky" as they may be abandoned after the harvest. (Rarely they are murdered, but That typically gets the attention of the authorities. A friend, a fellow veteran, gave up and sold his property, after he got minimal response from authorities. After being abandoned after harvest, some teens came onto his property seeking food and water! At least a private charity picked them up after 48 hours. You can find videos of such grow operations on KZbin (mostly After the harvest, and abandonment.) Tens of thousands of teens, and younger, are used as slave labor (or paid a pittance); more than are victims of prostitution. Authorities are Aware of these teen and younger Victims, but Don't want to allocate resources ($$$$$) to help them, so they ignore as much as possible... 😢

Anyone into true crime knows the police have always been notorious for immediately assuming all missing kids are runaways when they disappear. Even if there's no issues at home and no prior instances of the kid running away. Look up just about any case of a kid gone missing and you'll find that in the first crucial hours and days the police usually didn't do anything because they insisted the kid had just ran away. I know a lot of kids do run away, but the people in this video assuming most of these 1,000 kids are just runaways is exactly what human traffickers depend on.

I may be paranoid but I make sure my kids wear bright clothing when we go out . I noticed many of these kids were wearing dark or neutral clothing. I always wonder if predators go after kids wearing darker clothing because they are easier to go unnoticed when being taken.

[@paladinsix9285]

Traffickers will mostly go after kids with neglectful parents, or convince teens to go with them. Mostly. Any kid might be abducted. However, predators prefer to target kids where no one will notice, at least for a while; sometimes their (typically) single parent Won't care. Awareness, and Teaching your children about "Danger Stranger" and to run into a fire station, business, school, if concerned. Better Safe Than Sorry. Many Teens are Runaways; children are most often abducted by a non-custodial Parent (or for them). So, if you are not divorced/separated, and your ex is rational, your kids are likely safe! Runaways might come from any family, but there are usually indicators beforehand.

Few places are much better; many are worse! Moving away can be an impetus for a kid or teen to Runaway, where they become vulnerable!

Curious how they didn’t mention any cross checking reports with parents. Hopefully that is something currently taking place. If it was a major case of runaways, parents would be clamoring for information, and, would be included in “news coverage” like this.
