Most children who go missing do come home. If they've erroned off or there was a miscommunication, many families are finding their way back to their family.

According to the Polly Klaas Foundation, 98% of children reported missing came home. 97.8 percent of children reported missing came home. Of those who are abducted, 9 percent are kidnapped by a family friend. Only a small percentage are stranger abductions. However, the fact remains that if it happens to one child, it's one child too many.'
