Whether the child is a missing fugitive or just missing, there is no difference in the degree of danger a child may face. Missing children are at greater risk of becoming victims.

In the past, if a child ran away, parents would quickly find that child at a friend's house one or two blocks away. In the age of the Internet and mobile phones, this community is now all over the world. Children may be lured away by people who pretend to be themselves. The stranger may have malicious intentions or worse.
