I hope someone comes forward with information about this young man. Hopefully, he's staying at a friend's house out of harms way. A lot of them can't/don't see dangers as we adults do. Im wondering why he's a habitual runaway? If he's returned safely, some family counseling could help understand what the issues are that's causing this repeated behavior. It's nothing to be ashamed of. I took my child in for counseling at one time. It was a different issue, but it helped us tremendously!

Why has no alert been issued? He's been missing for a while and only was seen there last Thursday. I hope this young man is found soon, someone somewhere knows something. Stop staying silent this could be your son!
