According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, besides being Memorial Day, today is also Missing Children's Day.
Most of us will never know the horror of dealing with a missing child. I'm sure not a day goes by that John and Reve Walsh wish that they didn't know that horror. Thank God they were able to use their pain to help thousands of others going through the same pain.
Here is where you can help. Check: http://www.fbi.gov/page2/may09/missingkids_052509.html. The site has photos of missing children, as well as links to help parents of missing children.
If you know of the whereabouts of any missing child, please contact your local police department and/or the FBI.
About Me
- feminist writer - Robin Shwedo
- I am a freelance writer with a BA in Mass Communications from the University of South Florida St. Petersburg. Please check out my production site: http://robinshwedoproductions.weebly.com and e-portfolio at http://rjshwedo.weebly.com. A few of my favorite quotes are: "...Comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable" (Finley Peter Dunne); "Pray for the dead and fight like hell for the living" (Mother Jones); "The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing" (Albert Einstein). Some things inspire me: people who strive to make a positive difference; sunrise or sunset--especially at the beach. Some things that make me angry: those who can't be bothered to do what's right; the fact that the medical and legal system frequently looks at people's finances before deciding whether or not that person should have access to their services...I could go on...
