A runaway or Street youth soften the subject of an out standing warrant or a missing person s report. A family wish ing to help should first Contact the child s school the local so Cial welfare Agency or the police. Situations Are not always what they seem. Too Man families believe they can solve the problem by simply taking the child in for a few Days or weeks. In the vast majority of cases they can to and they end up doing More harm than is . While your advice May be Good for the Long haul fail to see How it would be harmful to take in a kid for a Day or two and give him or her a clean bed some Home cooked food and a Little Good advice.
