Reckless endangerment and child abandonment are two quick ones that come to mind. If the child was adopted, that would mean he has accepted the new parents as his. His natural parents would have lost custody, probably for being unfit parents. It is very rare for an adopted child to continually run off to his natural parents. The more likely scenario is the child was still in foster care. #10 & 12,

Apparently, their rationale is that the boy often ran away so they thought he found a suitable place this time to live. The child would be 21 years old. The Butler county Sheriff is treating the case as a homicide. Which they should. It is odd how the media can not do simple math. What is even more odd is in the KC metropolitan area the biggest news of the day is a grocery store downtown. From what I understand of the story he was with his adopted parents when he went missing.

How do I know he is against gay adoption? PS--does anyone know if it is the law anywhere that missing kiddies must be reported, and if so in what time frame? Not that any of my kiddies are missing.

It's obvious to me this child was possible abused by these adoptive parents considering their lack of concern. Or the child had serious issues and should not have been placed in a home. Ether way the story is by no means reflects the story title. The headline gives a different story as if actual biological parents did not report the child missing.
