I hope there is someone with a door cam or if someone was driving by the house also do an investigation on the foster parents. Someone in the neighborhood must of see something
Anthony my PRAYER will save you. You will be found SAFE.
His foster parents did something to him. Police need to make this their priority and stop delaying!
Please don’t make those assumptions…. We as foster parents do the best we can to love these kids through their struggles. To say they did anything wrong is unfair. Kids in care have lived through so much, sometimes they act without thinking at no fault of anyone. They struggle to trust, therefore we can tell them we will be there, we can show them we care, but sometimes it is not enough
Hit dogs holler. If you’re a good foster parent, then shut up. Most of them are not worth a penny. And many of them do abuse these children. So just stop it.
How in the hell do you know!?!? Don’t start rumors unless you can back your accusation with proof!
Most likely family found out where he was and have him.
He might have been upset and left.
What neighborhood does he live in?
