New Point of View

The blog post titled Missing and Murdered Children is unique in the parallels that it draws from other cases. The blogger deftly explores the family units in each case and is not afraid to identify family problems and issues that pre-existed the murder or disappearance of these children. These blog posts reflect my opinions that, although not in all cases, some form of neglect or abuse existed prior to the event. The fact that the child is missing becomes an issue for parents and families who, suddenly, cannot account for the child's absence. Although I am not currently involved in any specific research at this time, it is refreshing and useful to know that others have similar thoughts and opinions regarding the hidden circumstances of these heart wrenching cases, and that resources are available for further support.
