Most children who go missing do come home. Many families find their way back to their family whether they've strayed off or there was a miscommunication.
According to the Polly Klaas Foundation, 99.8 percent of children reported missing came home. Of those who are kidnapped by a family friend, 9 percent are kidnapped by a family friend. Only a small percentage of stranger abductions are kidnappings. However, the truth remains, if it pertains to one child, it's one child too many.
