[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids were being kidnapped, raped and murdered for decades. Now we have more coverage. There are also a lot of cold cases from decades earlier being solved nowadays with DNA evidence. Educated parents cared in every decade. [/quote] This is true. Growing up, my parents let me and my brothers roam around on our bikes, a lot of times going on our separate ways and meeting up at home later. After I grew up and found out what happened to the kids on the milk cartons, I decided that my parents were very irresponsible. I would never let my daughter just roam around like that, ever. I've always been particularly chilled by two stories - Ann Gotlib, from my hometown of Louisville, which taught me how fast it can happen that you never see your child again, and John Walsh's son Adam, the details of which shock the conscience and show what evil truly is.[/quote]
