Ahaha 😂

The teens saving the child was pretty good
Yeah instead of “kid”napping him they were thoughtful enough and used some smart ideas to get him to his parents
And taught the dad an important lesson not to be judgemental
Ey,thats pretty good
That was wholesome
That is the type of teenager I wanna be
PaganiniGD me too
Half of these are people who didn’t get lost, but their friends/family just forgot where they were and declared them missing.

This is exactly what it's like having a brother lol
i hate it when im playing hide and seek and the others give up looking for me and don't even yell out to let me know so im hiding there for ages until i eventually give up only to find them watching tv
As a brother, I’d do the exact same thing lmao
Brother got lost in downtown LA when he was 4 years old. Caught a ride somehow and gave directions home. Parents came home to find my brother sitting in front of the TV.

How long where they looking for him?

I can confirm this is true, because I exist.
This woman on Twitter joked that she was gonna put her toddler son up for sale on craigslist. he wouldn't stop screaming and crying, saying his nuggets were lonely in the oven, he wanted to get in with them. 🤦🏿♀️
My dad was a really toxic person, so me, being 11 years old and sick of his shit, decide to run away to a playground (it was literally behind our house) and hide. Hours later i decide to head home, but it was dark, so the route behind our house was too scary for me. I take the street route with the lighting and get picked up by the cops. It was a wild week after that ngl.
What happened afterwards?
@@caitlynzeferino6403 my dad smashed my moms phone and accused her of being a cheating whore, we moved into an apartment in the ghetto (we found a bag of cocaine there) and i stabbed a kid in the face with a pencil 😔✋✨

Once when I was little, I somehow got separated from my mother in Kmart and searched what seemed like the entire store for her. Finally I gave up and realized I'd never find her on my own, and figured she might be looking for me too. So I did what seemed like the only thing that made sense. I went to the front, found some people who worked there, and told them I was looking for my mother.
Imagine my mother's reaction when she heard herself being paged, by name, over the store intercom and realized her six-year-old son was the one who arranged for it. I recall her being one part annoyed, one part amused, and one part relieved that I knew what to do in that situation.
Kid my dad grew up they nicknamed “Zombie Boy” got lost in the woods and a local laboratory tried to cover up his disappearance by giving his family a fake dead body of the boy. They had a funeral and everything before the real kid showed up a few days later.

I'm currently "missing" I don't know if anyone has tried to find me but I lost my entire family over the course of my life and finally when my dad died of cancer 3 years ago I had no one I just split and moved to another state. My mom's side of the family doesn't really have any reason to talk to my dad's side of the family since my mom died when I was 12 and my sister died when I was 21 I am the only link between both sides of my family and I think they both think I am staying with the other side when in reality I'm nowhere near either. Maybe I will resurface if I manage to make something of myself
Hope you figure things out hon
I hope they at least a bit worried
@@whoami1449 afaik both sides think I'm staying with the other side. I'm just such a mess right now. I don't really know what to do and can't stand being around people. A lot of people in my family like to try and pry into my life a little too invasively. I know they mean well but I can't take it and I don't want to offend anyone by telling them to back off a little
I ran away for a week in my teens... a childhood friend talked me into it. My family put up missing persons poster's and embarrassed me (the worst picture they could find) .My childhood friend said she would turn me in and we can split the reward money I FELT SO SILLY,she set me up .....I went home and never spoke to her ever again!
@@eatonbeaver69 burnout of some kind? If so, concentrate on rest and self-care. Including therapy. There are online options if you can't handle face to face human contact. Lots of walks in nature, contact with nice animals, whatever's soothing and restorative. Take care of your body by eating well, exercising (stick to what you find calming or cathartic--doesn't matter what it is, just move your body!), and adhering to hygiene routines. If you treat your body like crap, then you'll continue to feel like crap. Give your psyche a fighting chance, be aware of self-sabotage and strive against it. When you slip up, don't give yourself a hard time--you're human, you're allowed to be weak and to fail; just don't give up. Rest, but don't give up. Find meaning in the mundane. You don't have to achieve greatness in order to be worthy of your membership in society.
When I was 2, my parents noticed me wandering off on the beach. At this point, I had wandered away a few times and been brought back, but this time they decided to follow me from a distance to see how far I would go before I noticed I was lost. They followed me pretty far down the beach and I was completely oblivious of the fact that I was surrounded by strangers. Eventually they gave up waiting for me to realize what was going on and took me back to the umbrella they set up. Years later, I got diagnosed with ADHD. My mom likes to reference this story as an early sign that I had it.
Got distracted looking at something in Walmart when my family walked off without me. I had the sense to stay in the general area and only talked to women who had children (was the same womanwach time, but I was too panicked to realize lol). I was asking her for like the third time if she had seen my family when my uncle who (at that time) was kind of meaner and scary, found me, grabbed my arm, apologized, and dragged me away, yelling at me for wandering off. I told him I didn't, they walked away without me, but he wouldn't here it and just denied that that's what happened. Like, dude, I was looking through posters, the frames clicking fairly loud because kids don't understand gentle, and was still looking when you all left. I actually argued with about it the best way a child under 10 but over 5 could and no one would believe me. I was pissed they all blamed me when I NEVER wandered off without telling someone before! I guess they were worried, but it still made me mad that I was yelled at for something I technically didn't do, something THEY did (technically). Still pisses me off that they didn't believe me.
The way my mother explained it to me.
"You have eyes, you have legs, if you get lost while we are in the store its because you didn't pay attention, I'm trying to shop."
That's definitely the type of thing I'd still be mad for.
Believing you would mean blaming themselves which most parents aren’t going to do especially if they believe you are “old enough” to keep up.
@@radiantgoldensun6438 in my family adults are always right and children (no matter how grown they become) are always wrong. Especially with the uncle that found me. He and my grandpa used to grab my sister and I by the hair or ear if they thought we were misbehaving, regardless of if my parents were around or not to be the ones doing that. It’s a VERY good thing he and my aunt never had kids, considering how he treated my sister and I when we were little. My sister was supposed to stay with them the summer we were building our house, but after a week or 2 decided sleeping on the couch at my grandpa’s house for a few months was better than staying with them because they were so strict and everything.
props to the teens who helped the lost child
that was unexpectedly wholesome

When my step dad was a kid, him and his parents took a trip, using two separate cars. When they stopped at a gas station, his dad told him to go with his mother. My step dad went to tell her, but she already left. He went back to his dad, but he left by then too. My step dad waited for a long time at that gas station. When his parents met up at the other location, and saw none of them had the kid, they panicked.
Alright Richard (made up name for your step dad cause I don't know it)
we're here. Richard? I thought you had him, but I thought you picked him up. *OH SHIIIII*

I actually got lost a couple of times as a kid. One time when I was a baby my parents took me to a store and set down my baby carrier with me in it for a minute, but then forgot to take me with them when they continued their shopping and they only realized I was missing after they'd gotten to the car and driven out of the parking lot and dad couldn't see me in his rearview mirror. So they frantically went back to the store and I was still exactly where they left me, still sleeping in the baby carrier.
Then when I was about 3 we were on vacation in Ireland (I'm from the Netherlands) and we were visiting some old ruins or something and I'd crawled into one of them and my parents noticed I was missing not long after so they went looking for me, and then my dad found me and I just said to him, something along the lines of, 'look dad, I'm in history.'
Parents did the whole "threatened to kick me out and made me pack my own bag" thing at least twice. I had a couple places I could have gone, but they were still putting me under mental duress by screaming at me for over 2 hours (not entirely uncommon in my life) and egging me on about what my life was gonna be like living under a bridge, etc and my auto reflex is waterworks... only to tear my bag apart, belittle me even further and then sending me to my room to take turns screaming at me some more. I kinda wish i did leave, find out how to transfer schools, and moved in with people who treated me like i was competent, or maybe i get treated like either a toddler and the root of every problem in the universe by another set of adults, cause a strain on my friend's relationship with them, and actually run away to live under a bridge... who knows.
sounds really shitty, man. I hope you're doing well now, or at least better.
Those kids being forgotten about reminds me of one time at school when my Dad was supposed to pick me up, but he forgot. I was just waiting at school, getting more and more anxious, trying not to freak out(Autistic, so things not going to plan really stresses me out). Eventually, a full hour after school let out, all the other students and most of the teachers had gone home, and the front desk lady goes to leave the school too and sees me still standing there, waiting. She takes me back inside and calls my mum, who’s not at all pleased to hear I’m still at school. Calls Dad on speakerphone as she leaves work and gets into her car, first thing she says to him is “where’s (my name)?” Dad’s response? “OH,” his sudden remembrance of what he was supposed to do a hour ago evident. Mum told him not to bother, she was on her way to get me, found me nearly in tears and hurried me back home. I was not a happy girl for the rest of the day. It’s funny to look back on now, but at the time my brain was going “ohmigod, what’s happened, has Dad gotten into an accident, has he been attacked by a customer at work, what do I do, please come get me soon, please tell me you’re OK” and I was so paralysed by those thoughts and by the fact that ThisIsn’tHowTodayWasSupposedToGo that it never even occurred to me to go into the office and ask them to call and check.
Well if somet happens again u can say
I had the same thing happen to me when I was younger. It was in elementary school. Honestly at that age, stuff like that is terrifying 😅
This reminds me of one time when I was in kindergarden my dad was supposed to pick me up but got drunk and took too many valiums then fell asleep and left me at school until the sun was literally setting. My teacher stayed behind and let me watch a movie and eat snacks and my mom had to leave work early and make an hour and a half drive just for my brother to have picked me up first lmao, i was just stoked for snacks and more time away from the hell house.
I'm not even autistic and I would think that don't worry girl if my mom and wasn't home 30 minutes after she says she was on her way home I gotta call and make sure she is okay and didn't get into an accident
Apparently, dads forgetting their child is common 🤣 Back when I was in elementary school, I would stay at my grandmother's house after school until my mother is back from work and come get us. One time my mom was not around, my dad forgot to take me and my brother back from my grandmother's house on his way home and decided we should just sleep there. We have no extra clothes to wear.
I was like 7 years when i got „lost“. I forgot my jacket at school and was worried my mom would scream at me for that, at this time i was driving my bike. Me, dump as hell, instead of riding back to school with my bike decided to lean my bike against a wall and walked back to school, got my jacket and walked back to my bike where i found the police and my dad taking notes and inspecting the place around it. Turn out i needed a half hour to walk back to my bike and my dad saw my bike and called the police. My mum ended up yelling at me anyway lol
*Driving your bike*
@@V1_Ultrakrill adding some motors i see

Dump...ah yes, I remember that insult. Back in my day, it was 'dumb', though, sonny boy.
And we did not attach motors to our bikes so we could drive them.
0:17 I missed you. And to any other person reading this, who has been kidnapped or missing, dont you dare think that nobody cares about you. I care about you. I am always here to listen to you if you need help
A couple years ago I was walking back from my friends house (which is around the block from my home) and my mother was sleeping when I got back. Apparently she called my name but I did not hear so she thought I was missing. She asked my brother if I was home and he said no even though I said hi to him. My mom decided to call my friend who’s house I came from and they searched every block. I was in the bathroom showering so I didn’t answer any FaceTime calls or text messages. My mom came in, crying but naturally when the door opens and closes you go to check it. My mom was balling her eyes out and hugging me and made me start crying as well. Long story short, sleeping or not I tell my mom where I am every hour when I’m out or as soon as I get back.
damn u cute tho
I had something similar happen to me once where I accidentally made my mom think I was missing but I was actually just at home. Back in elementary school, there was this after-school thing that a majority of my class was participating in, and I was one of the few people that didn't want to participate and just wanted to go home instead since I had the option. My mom usually walks to the school to pick me up but I think I remember there being a windy storm going on so I just kind of assumed that my mom wouldn't come all the way to the school to pick me up, plus the fact that some neighbors that I knew who went to the same school offered me a ride home since it was so windy. I took them up on that offer and took a ride home, not knowing that my mom was currently walking to the school. The details after this are incredibly hazy, but I remember my mom was really upset because she thought I was missing, and I think I also got scolded for it somewhere in there. Honestly, I still kind of feel guilty about it.

I was 4, tying my shoes was very hard. We were leaving for something, who knows what. But my shoes just werent listening! So i sat on the steps leading to the living room and got to work, something about a bunny and a tunnel. Eventually I made it work. All ready to go I looked around. Wait, it was a little quiet. I called out for my mom, my siblings, hell even the dog! But nope, i was all alone, in the big house. I sat in front of the front door and started sobbing. Literally there for like an hour before my family came back, they were on their way to ocean city. Initially my mom had counted my twin twice and thought she had all 5 kids. She was sorely mistaken. And when at a rest stop she realized that I had not put a candy on the counter, because i was not there. And came back to find me still crying at the front door. And i never got that candy.
Home alone 6
A similar thing happened to my little sister. We were in a rush and she had come out to the car, but she forgot something so she ran back in the house. She is the youngest of us 3, so her seat was in the back row in the van. She always falls asleep like 3 minutes into a drive, so not hearing her voice wasnt concerning. We left, and my mom started telling us about how kids around our age (i was like 9 at the time, little sis was 5) had been abducted within the county and we needed to be careful outside when they arent home. She asked me if I understood. "Yep." Brother? "Yep." Little sister? No response. We all turn around and she wasn't there. My dad has never stopped and turned a car around faster. We live in the middle of nowhere with a long driveway, like half a mile long. We had left her for like a total of 10 minutes from leaving to realizing and returning to get her, and she had walked the whole driveway and like a quarter mile down the road. All of our dogs were walking with her and she sobbed for hours
Damn, you knew how to tie your shoes at 4?
Pars A Hardly! I think it was mostly knots.

Just remembered the time my cousin went missing. She has cerebral palsy, hents it being pretty high profile.
We were between 7-9, she was playing with a kid at the kids grandparents, come 4pm shes being called in, she doesn't go in, for hours, we search the woods all the way up to the creepy house, all the streets, literally everywhere and my hometown isnt small, the police where involved. She literally could not be found.
Come 8pm, she pops out of this house at the top of my street, literally a 2min walk from her house. Turns out the kid was forcing her to stay and wouldn't let her leave, the grandparents had no idea apparently. I think I was the one to check the house because someone told me she was there, idk it was like 10 years ago now, I just remeber freaking out and being really relieved to see her. But it really made me think, my cousin came out the house crying, grandparents apparently have no idea what's going on even though the ENTIRE neighbourhood is yelling and searching, like wtf went on in that house???
That kid must be a psycho… I hope your cousin is safe
I got lost on the trails in Shark River Park in NJ when I was a young, this was the mid-90's, I was 11 maybe? I was missing for a few hours and no-one noticed. I was walking the trails during a party and started following deer trails into the deeper woods. I distinctly remember stopping and looking around after I knew I was lost and this deer steps out of the woods in front of me, it's standing about two feet away staring at me. I wanted to pet it but I was scared I was going to frighten it away, it walked away after a bit and I kept wandering the deer trails getting more scared by the minute.
Eventually I heard cars on the highway and I distinctly remember thinking: "if I find the road I can follow it somewhere with people." (for some reason I didn't even *consider* stopping a car to get help.) Anyway I find the road and turn left to see a big man-made trail leading back into the park. I decide to follow it and start to recognize places I'd already explored.
When I got back my Mom was packing up after the party and she admitted she thought I was still playing with the other kids and nobody knew I was missing. Nothing ever came of it but the most vivid memory I have of that two hours was standing there staring that deer in the eyes and wanting to pet it.
When I was 3 or 4 I was at the beach with my dads side of the family. My mom,dad,aunt,and uncle went to the coffee Shop down the road so my uncle decided to take us to a diner but I somehow misheard him and thought we were going to the beach so I went over to my beach house (my family used to have 2 beach houses across from each other) and told everyone to wait for me to get changed. They didn’t hear me and went to the diner and I came back outside in my bathing suit looked around and didn’t see anyone so I decided that they most likely went down to the beach. I walked down the road to the beach and tried to find them when I hear my dad screaming my name and me turning around to see him running down the path to the beach and grabbing me by my arm and taking me to the diner where everyone was sitting at the table relieved. But since I was in my bathing suit or something my dad took me back to the beach house and I didn’t get to eat at the diner :(
My teachers in elementary school constantly lost me because I was a very quiet kid
I wondered if I could escape existence by simply being forgotten completely.
Same, even in class my teacher would forget I was there and was like WTF whenever I answered a question in class bc I was always such a quiet nerd. :/
"People who went missing, what happened? - Idk, I think I got murdered ..."
When I was little (6 or so, maybe), I went with my siblings to explore the old barn on my grandparents' property. We hung around there for a while, and then I was ready to go back to the house before my siblings were. My sister told me to follow the "road" we had gone down to get there, and it would bring me back to the house.
I did exactly what she said, but I went the wrong way. I walked for a very long time, and didn't think anything of it until I got to a cattle gate and realized I hadn't seen one on the way to the barn.
In the meantime, my siblings had gone back to the house. Cue a huge freakout as everyone realized I was gone. People were sent out to look for me.
When I got to the cattle gate, I hung around there for a bit, before I eventually started walking back the way I had come. Shortly after that a pickup pulled up next to me, and in it was my grandfather, and either my dad or my uncle (I only have vague memories of this whole thing, and they're identical twins, so from my memories, I can't actually tell which of them it was (and that uncle was basically like a 2nd father to me, since his kids were more like siblings to me than my actual siblings, so I spent as much time as I could at their house).
The next thing I remember, I was back at my grandparents' house and everyone was fussing over me, while all I wanted to do was go to the bathroom, eat a snack, and take a nap, in that order.
I’ve had a dew instances of disappearing throughout my childhood. When I was about 3, my mom used to take me to a gym to swim in their indoor pool. One day when we were in the changing room, I disappeared. They searched everywhere in and out of the building and finally found me running around the indoor track upstairs in nothing but Winnie the Pooh underwear. There was also that time I escaped the house and got attacked by the neighbors Rottweiler. I also made friends with a new family down the street that just moved there from Mexico when I was around 6. I ended up assimilating with them for a few hours while we went out to eat. Apparently my parents don’t remember me asking to go, because they were freaking out when I got back and were about to call the police.
Those rottweilers were probably big babys and were happy to get the attention
I have a rottweiler and two pitbulls, they're all massive whiny babies. Dogs are usually only aggressive if they've had trauma or they've been trained to be that way. My puppers look pretty scary but they're huge sweethearts.
@@MisterSisterFister666 ah yes p u p p e r s
In my experience one was probably happy for the attention and the other probably knew the guy was drunk and didn't pose a threat so therefore didn't do anything
Obligatory “not me, but..”. It was someone else in my French class (I’ll call her Jessie) who’d accompanied the rest of the people in the group that had gone on a trip to France when I was a senior in high school. I’ll try to relate what happened to the best of my ability (this happened back in 2013). For additional context, a few years prior my family had hosted an exchange student from Italy (we’ll call her Aria) and said exchange student was in Paris during the time I was there on the French trip. So, while everyone else went off to have Fondue at a restaurant somewhere in Montmartre , I was allowed by my teacher to go have dinner with Aria to catch up. So dinner is over, I arrive at the hotel we’re staying at safe and sound, and Jessie arrives and goes upstairs to her room. Not long after, the rest of my group arrived back at the hotel wanting to know where Jessie was, and I tell them that she went up to her room. We all go up there to speak with her. It turns out that at some point In my group’s fondue escapades (which iirc they said wasn’t all that good, so I guess I dodged a bullet), Jessie has gotten separated from the group and made the harrowing journey back to the hotel alone, having evidently not listened to our teacher’s pre-trip guidance to (should one get lost) go into a Tabac and buy a prepaid phone card and make a call.
TLDR one of the students on my school French trip got separated from the group while I myself was separated from the group and I heard later the details of what happened
I'm pretty sure being lost as a kid for 15 minutes is considered "missing" and that's not these stories the post was looking for...
I have a story myself.
When I was about 2 or 3 years old, My parents, eldest sister and I went to the mall. It was huge. Though, not too important to the story. So, My Dad tells my mother and my sister that he’ll leave me with them because he was going to bathroom if I can remember correctly. After a while, my mom realized I wasn’t there with her or my sister, and frantically calls my dad and asking if I’m with him, forgetting I was left with her. As my dad says “No, I left her with you, why?” That’s when they all start panicking and start looking for me. Since they can’t find me anywhere, they ask to lock all entrances and exits to the mall in order to find me. I don’t remember who exactly spotted me, but I was found. To make that a bit scarier, they had found me leaving the mall and in the parking lot with two random strangers.
They said I started crying when I saw them.
Honestly, if they hadn’t found me, anything could have happened, and I’m scared of what the outcome would have been if they didn’t see me.
I went missing when I wasn't even a year old.
My dad was running around outside trying to find me and my mom was in shock just staring out the window.
I'm sure they were about to file a missing persons report when they heard my laughter

4:19 My family discovered my sleepwalking when we went on vacation to Florida when I was like 7 or 8. No one noticed me get up and leave the hotel room. I woke up facing a different room's door on a different floor. I assumed it was my room and tried to get my parents to let me in. Security found me and after figuring out the room was empty and defiantly not mine they helped me find my family. My parents were pretty embarrassed because they were wide awake and didn't notice me leave. They never knew I was gone.
It was last year I think, my family and I had just gone to a giant park that we had never been before(we went on a road trip). Since it was super hot outside I found a way to sleep in a tunnel slide and it was pretty cold in there so it was nice. Everyone thought I was missing. I was found when one of my little cousins went down the slide and kicked me down. All I remember is my little cousin screaming "I found her!!" Then everyone circling me on the ground. I wasnt one to get in trouble so this freaked me out quite a bit. I mean- I had just been woken up by a little kid kicking me down a slide and almost everyone at the park sounding me on the ground still half asleep. This was a 2 - 5 star rated experience.
The Rottweiler one was just cute. I’d love to snuggle with a big boi like that ^w^
omg, i remember a story. how did i forget this one
so i lived in busan, south korea for a year. i learned ballet and tak kwon doe (i can't romanize korean well) and went to those classes weekly. as a child, i had no perception of time or schedules, and didn't know we went to those classes on a specific day of the week.
one day, i was waiting for my grandparents to pick me up, but the tak kwon doe van (yes a van, korea picks up students instead of parents driving them to it) came before my grandma. being the ironic punctual kid, i didn't wanna miss class, so i left the class waiting for their parents and i explained to the driver that i didn't have my uniform. he said it's fine and i hopped in. i was laughing with the other kids, who were talking in korean and we joked (probably the only time i can easily socialize without worry)
i got to the dojang, and lo and behold, i couldn't participate because i didn't have a uniform. so i sat to the side, and soon, my grandma's friend and her grandaughter came and we ate ice cream while grandma's friend sounded surprised and phone someone.
i get back home and i think they told me to never do that again, and explained that i went to class on thursday, not tuesday.
that was interesting.
When I was eight years old, my family and I were at an airport in New York City (it might have been JFK, but I could be wrong) to fly back home after a cruise trip. We and their other group of friends were standing in the entrance area about to enter the next chamber to get further into the airport. We stood there for what felt like ages. Because I was a child, I was getting easily bored of just standing and not going anywhere. To end my boredom, I found a gift shop right by us (practically ten feet away) that was open up so you could see anyone that was standing there. I walked over there and looked at some Popeye plush toys. I was there for 25 seconds at most.
When I looked up from checking out the toys, my family and their friends were gone. I didn't know what else to do than to stay in that area. It wasn't until about 20 or so minutes later when my dad came back to ask a security guard if he had seen a little girl. The guard said no. Right after he said that, I popped up and said, "Dad, I'm right here". I said it in a tone to make it sound like this wasn't such a big deal because I was already embarrassed that I drifted off from the group due to boredom. My dad pulled me away angrily as I tried to keep my composure. When I was reunited with my family, everyone gasped in relief as if they thought I died.
Listening to these stories lets me know I am not alone on this and/or that at least my story isn't as bad as some of the other ones that played here. Whenever I bring this story up with my family, I try to do so in a fun spirited way (ei: we will laugh about this someday). Unfortunately, even 18 years after this happened, they still switch the tone to a much more serious matter and make it sound like they might not have ever been able to see me ever again. To be fair, they are right to feel this way about almost losing their child in a state thousands of miles away. I guess I don't want to think about me being the "absent minded" kid you HAVE to keep your eyes on 24/7.
When I was eight, I thought I was at an age where it's not common or (to put it in a rudely pathological sense so you all know the crap I have to hear all the time) "developmentally appropriate" to wonder off when bored. It turns out, you are still just as much of a kid as you were when you were seven and six. There were stories here where the people were much older than eight and getting lost. I hope this is just a case of me being too hard on myself.
I wasn't really lost but when i was 6 or 7, my uncle forgot to pick me and my brother up from school. It was getting late and dark, but the school guard stayed with us until his shift was over. My uncle didn't show up yet, so the guard decided to get us home instead. He paid the transportation fare for me and my brother and dropped us off at our house, making sure we were safe. It was really nice of him, I'll never forget it :)
I whent to go hide and cry several times before last year of middle school. There were no attempts to search for me or call my patients about my whereabouts. Developed apathy towards human life and may or may not have let shit happened to people from there.
I have apathy about everything, especially other people
Hey man, it's sad to hear that, I sometimes feel that way too, but don't lose hope. Personally, when I'm feeling that way I try to think about all of those peopel who I don't know who would be trying to help me if they knew about me.
Overdramatic tbh

When I was younger, there was one Sunday where we were getting ready to go to church and, for whatever reason, I was a bit behind. So, everyone else loaded up in the car(a Honda Odyssey, early 2000's) and I wasn't in the car. They started driving away and I chased after the car on my little legs, screaming for them to wait, but I gave up shortly and was crying. After that I was just sitting on our front lawn crying my eyes out when eventually my family came back. Turns out they thought I was in the car and just quieter than usual. This is kind of understandable because our car had seven seats in it, our parents would sit in the front, my brothers in the middle, and I would sit in the very back. Also, I am very quiet, and was a quiet child. They realized I wasn't actually in the car and came back, but they didn't actually get far. Looking back, it wasn't that bad of an experience. However, that incident completely aggravated my preexisting fear of being forgotten and left behind, so that kind of sucks.
I got lost at the market once when i was 6 or 7. My mom and I were walking hand in hand while going through the streets and I let go of her hand for because I got distracted. When I turned around, she was gone. I called out for her and looked around for a bit before giving up and deciding to go home. I didn't cry or panic too much since I'd tag along with one of my family members to that market atleast once a week, so I knew which directions to take and walked the entire 20-30 minutes home alone. Once I got there, I told my grandfather to quickly text my mom that I was home because I knew she'd be worriedly looking for me. My mom arrived a couple of minutes after that and we all had a good laugh about it. Although we all recall that memory with fondness, I can still remember the look of alarm on my grandfather's face when he saw me approach the house without my mom and the look of absolute relief on my mom's when she got out of the car and saw me safe and sound. Sometimes I still wonder what would have happened if I didn't follow my mom's lessons on stranger danger, crossing the road, and such the entire way back. The roads I had to take were in busy areas too so I just switched sidewalks to try to avoid other people.
I got one. Walked home from school, my dad happened to pass by and picked me up with my sister to go to a different city for a meeting. Been gone til' midnight. Came home and slept. Woke up to my mom next to me "I thought you were kidnapped". Came to school, everyone got surprised I was there. Teachers questioned me and classmates thought I was dead. Apparently when my dad brought me with him, he didn't inform anybody about it. So everyone was left wondering where I was
0:48
I was at National Youth Leadership Training, and I took a nap in my tent during a break during the afternoon, I wake up and hear two of my group members walking around. I asked them if the meeting had started, and they said they didn't know where I was and nobody had looked for me in my tent. The meeting was finished.
Are you in New York, cause most of the guys in my troop went to NYLT
The one about the extended stay hotel and the person not answering the phone for 2 weeks? I would totally think my kid was dead by then. Then I'd kill them when I found out they weren't!
"If you die I'll kill you!"
@@Animefan_7153-0 - Then, they'd be *deader* than dead.
I could've easily not contacted my family when I was put into hotel quarantine after returning to my home country during the pandemic. It would've actually been nice not needing to write to or call family and read their messages. Just myself, my laptop, the TV, and no social distractions for 2 weeks
My mum would've been furious though.
Is that where the teenage expression "I am SO dead comes from?"
I had one where I had just finished soccer practice and everyone went home except the coach who asked where my parents were and I said that they must just be late. Fast forward about half an hour so I got real pissed off at them in my head and walked home with studded boots although wasn't to far of a walk probably about a 30 min walk which I was used to and the park was right beside my school. When I was about 5 minutes away from home and I see my mum's car pull up in front and they said my dad was at the place wondering where I was. They got the times wrong but we still argued at the fact that I walked home and that I should've stayed there and wait for someone but it was years ago so I nearly forgot.
Also having bright orange boots that were clacking down the street I got some pretty weird looks.
I live in a desert and I've never seen snow or large areas of green before (still haven't seen snow). When I was eight, my parents took me and my brother to Tennessee for a funeral. While they were scattering the ashes in the river, I wandered away because everything was humid and green and I saw this really tall tree. I love being up high, so eight year old me finds a shorter tree, climbs it, uses that to get onto a taller tree, and then using that to reach the branches of the really tall tree. I was sitting about 4/5ths of the way up on that tree and I could see so many things at the same time, I sat down on the branch just below me because it was thicker than the one I was standing on and straddled the tree trunk. I the proceeded to lay my head on the trunk and wrap my arms around it so I didn't fall and I fell asleep. Woke up the next day and saw people running around below me. I'm an introvert, so I decide to stay in the tree because I didn't want to deal with people. I think I fell asleep again because I remember waking up and eating the rest of a granola bar I had in my pocket. People were still running around, so I stayed up but I started seeing how high I could go before the branches started cracking. I made it ten branches higher then climbed back down to the original branch and fell asleep. Next time I woke up, it was dark and there weren't people around, so I climb down to the bottom branch and climb into the shorter tree next to it and fell asleep there. Next time I woke up, my cousin (she was 10) had found me and decided to hand out with me since we were both introverts. She had a bag with some more food and water bottles in it. I drained one on the spot (I only had that granola bar) and ate a bag of chips. I showed her the branches I had slept on and we found two right beneath it and fell asleep. We ate and climbed back down to the second tree. Another night in the trees. We finished the rest of the food and we both climbed down. Our parents were freaking out and crying because they thought that a bear or something had got to both of us.
TL;DR, I climbed a tree to escape a boring funeral for someone I never met. I stayed up there for 2 and a half days before my cousin found me. We spent the next two days up there together. We both climbed down when we ran out of the food she brought.

When I was a young kid we had these family friends and we all would volunteer at the local animal shelter regularly for about a year. I had two sisters close to my age and the family friends had three kids also close to our age so we would all play together a lot and go exploring. One day we were done volunteering at the animal shelter but our moms were staying to talk to the people who worked there or something like that. We all got bored so we went exploring. There was an empty, deep canal a few yards behind the shelter and we got in it and starting moving along with it talking about Bigfoot, even though we lived in a desert like place. Eventually we came to this place with a really nice view and decided to go back when we were done there. Then when we got back (we had been gone a few hours) their mom was ANGRY at us and told us all these horror stories about kids who went missing and died and we never went exploring more than a mile farther than either of our families’ homes. Man that terrified me.
Me and my brother (he's a year older than me) got to the wrong waterslide at a waterpark when we were both little. Our parents were supposed to wait for us at the pool where we'd end up, but we actually fell in an entirely different pool. Fastforward to over an hour later, apparently, we were wandering literally all around the park by ourselves, and using landmarks and the maps of the park to navigate ourselves back to the pool we were supposed to go. It was actually a real nice bonding moment for us cause we both did our part and cooperated to find our way as if we were playing a game or solving a puzzle. When we made it back, we ran to our parents excited, but I didn't realise we were "lost" until my mum instead sprinted at us and knelled down hugging us both at the same time and crying, while my dad rushed to get the staff to tell them that they found us. They didn't leave us from their sight for the rest of the day.
Obligatory not a person but I once lost my phone

My brother has not been able to finger his phone for 2 months now I lost mine one time found it a few days ago lost it a few years back found it is a new car idk what it was doing in there 😆😆😆
My mom has freaked out about me missing several times when I was in high school after forgetting that I'd probably be in UIL practice. The room I had science UIL practice in didn't have service and there has been several times where I'd walk to the local store/gas station (it's a tiny, TINY town, more like a village really) and they'd end up calling my mom to let her know I'd been found. I don't know why she'd think I'd be anywhere other than the store or school. I was just a nerd with no social life outside of extracurriculars. 😂😂
Got lost in a golf course. Was about... 7, I liked to wander. I made sure my dad was in my field of vision. But a giant group of people passed by between us. He was gone after they passed. I cried until a very kind woman helped my find my parents.
I didn't really go missing, I just got lost in my own neighborhood. My mom, sister, and I, had just moved into a pretty strange neighborhood. There were tons of sketchy people, but there were also tons of nice, elderly people who let me come over to their houses for stories. On the first day of school, I had missed my bus stop (I was panicking because I didn't know which one to get off at). I was sitting with a girl I'd recognized as being neighbors with a girl I was friends with before she'd moved. We'll call her H. Fortunately, H's stop was the next after the one I'd been supposed to get off at. I got off at her stop and she gave me directions to get home.
Fast forward a little bit, H and I are now close friends who sit together all the time on the bus. H is upset because her parents aren't home and she doesn't have a key, so she'll be locked outside her house for hours. I offer for her to hang out at my house. She agrees, we call my mom and let her know (we didn't ask permission, just decided 'hey I'm going to have a friend over without my mom's consent). My mom was still at work and would still be for about twenty minutes when we got to my house. She was okay with H staying over for a few hours, as long as we picked up my little sister, and stayed outside (my dogs don't do so well around strangers).
When it's time for H to go home, I decide to go with her because I wanted to see the cats she was always raving about. I was still not used to the neighborhood, so I was pretty nervous about how to get home. H gave me directions, but, of course, when it was time for me to walk home, I completely forgot every word she said. I walked around in circles for a while, trying not to cry of fear. My mom's work was about five blocks from where I lived, and I could see it from where I was. I had a plan to go to my mom's work and wait there to pick me up when my aunt pulled up beside me. Being a panicked little kid, I thought she was a kidnapper and started screaming, not realizing that my mom had called her because she was worried something might have happened to me. She drove me back home and I was fine, a little terrified, but pretty okay.
The best part is - H lived a few blocks away from where I lived. All I had to do was turn left and go straight to get to my house.

I went missing for 16 years. I was going through a divorce and my parents (think Karen on steroids) were helping my ex with lies. I just vanished. I moved from Utah to Colorado, got a great job, had a daughter and had zero contact with any family until 12 years ago. I saw everyone and the parents had made no changes, I have had zero contact with anyone other than my little sister(5 years). She had contacted the Doe network and everything trying to find me. My children have my number and I talk weekly with sis, but as for anyone else, blocked!
I worked at one of those “gymnastics places” (my gym I practice at too.) and there’s a strict no hide and seek rule for many reasons, among which are: people could get lost, people could get jumped on, people could go in places they’re not allowed, people could break the VERY expensive equipment, and or, people could break themselves. So that hide and seek one irked me. We also had a rule against tag or random running around because of all the things to trip on and all the metal holding up equipment that you could bash your head on. People have literally fractured their skulls doing this stuff at my gym, no joke.
One of the stories reminded me of the time me and my sister missed the buss and had to walk to school because our mom said (at the time we where in middle school) next time we missed the bus we would have to walk and we took her way to seriously because we didn't want to get in trouble and it was like 2 miles when we where really close to the school and substitute teacher who recognized the uniform drove us the rest of the way their and I knew it was a bit dangerous so I was ready to fight her if she tried anything but definitely learned my lesson, until my mom switched schools later that year and we missed the bus for the first two days because that school was weird
Once I was having an after school field trip, for the group I was in. Well my good ol mother knew of my depression, my paps only leaving a few months prior, and assumed I ran away. She even got a text about the trip, read it wrong and thought the field trip was another day. Well after getting off the bus to walk home, my aunt is at the front of my trailer park ranting about how I shouldn't have done something. She dropped me off at home. Well guess what? MY MUM CALLED THE COPS. Literally there was a police car plopped right in the front of my trailer. Yeah so, I got grounded. I still think it was unfair. I didn't have a way to contact her since I didn't have a phone, and why would I run away? I had a sweet therapist during the time that I enjoyed to talk to! She also thought I was kidnapped. Like ok that makes sense. But why did I get grounded for that?!
I was with my foster placement at a Walmart. I was looking at something in one of those giant cardboard buckets and didn’t notice my group leaving. I turned around and they were gone. I walked around the store for 30 minutes and I couldn’t find them. I ended up managing to remember where the doors we came in were. I waited by those doors for another 20 minutes or so. All of them ended up walking out of the door with bags of candy while I stood there and cried. None of them, not even the staff who were supposed to look after me, knew I was gone. Some foster placement they are. They’re so quick to look for kids who ran away, but they didn’t notice that the half blind girl was missing. Also, I was 14 and very naïve and stupid. None of the Walmart staff even did anything. Luckily, I didn’t run into any creeps. It makes me so mad to think about. It just shows that not all foster placements give a crap about you.
Ha! My time has come!
So my family was going to a tour of someplace (forgot) and my oldest brother dale (I have two older brothers one older sister and two little brothers) was in the front bathroom so my mom told me to use the bathroom in the back of the house.I always carried around my pink blanky,so I put my blanky on the table and went to the bathroom that was in the back.My mom thought I went ahead into the van (I was in the bathroom) my other older brother sat in the seat next to the row, I sat by the window.He didn't notice I was gone,meanwhile I was sitting at home crying with the dog in my lap,blanky on my shoulder.My brother finally looked over and said word for word "hey,where's Anna" my mom freaked and called home,I answered.She came home picked me up we went back did the tour as well as head counts,left,got home,and ate dinner.happy ending!(no cops involved)

I actually went missing once.
I was at Sea World with my friend, and we played on this pirate ship that had two ramps. I followed my friend up and we played for a while. After a while, my friend ran down the OTHER ramp, that our parents didn't know about. I followed him, but he disappeared into the crowd.
I wandered around for hours through the theme park until I finally found some park workers. They found my parents and I found out my friend had just ran around the ship.
Let's just say I never followed my friends again, no matter how much I cared about their well-being.
never went missing but had a dream that felt to real about it (plus bonus story at the end)
when i was about 5 i had made up a little dream world in my head. it was my happy spot.
i always just imagined a world were i could make anything i wanted, it would have my favorite cartoons and animes, and i still remember it to this day. it was what i used to become sleepy, i would get into bed, and just add more things to the world and then mess around with it, one night, though, i went to bed and did the normal world thing i always did, but then when i fell asleep, i could still control the world, and feel my body and felt like i was awake, but i couldn't control my body, t looked like i was asleep, i felt my body getting picked up and put into a bag, (i still couldn't open my eyes) and felt like i was being carried away, i woke up UNDER MY BED. but for some reason i still felt like i was in a bag. and it felt so weird, my sister came to wake me up and asked why i was under the bed. never told her the real story. she thinks i was hiding from her. have no idea what happened. but i still have a kind of like that world but more anime less cartoon. that night i thought i was kidnapped or somehow given drugs. (i was dumb and new about drugs and how people can get kidnaped from them, i watched a lot of scary stories on the internet) (2000s kid here)
bonus story: when i was 3 i saw a woman at the end of my bed that reached for me then the door of my room opened (no one there) she turned her head over her shoulders then disappeared.
these to story's are not the craziest ones I've had. i have had a few scary stories in my dreams. lots of horrifying things. what makes it worse? i only see dreams in black and red. those are the only colors i see when I'm asleep.

Cousin went on a walk around the neighborhood without telling anybody. My aunt was about to call the police when they saw her in the distance. She was grounded for a loooooooooong time.
We were at an amusement park, me and my brother wanted to go to different rides, and my parents (both bio and step) wanted to stay with my younger stepbrothers and watch over them. After the ride was done, I tried to look for my family to the attraction they were last at and they weren’t there. So then I looked for my brother at the ride he wanted to go on, my brother wasn’t there either. So I go to the entrance and told the staff there I was lost. And literally right after a few minutes, my brother got there, and he tells me he was lost too and couldn’t find them. So the staff said our names and broadcasted it through the intercom or something, we wait a bit, and I see our family walking towards us. We smile at them but they were far from happy.
Basically me and my brother got grounded for going missing. My stepmom blamed us and we went home right after they found us because we got lost. We never went to an amusement park again because apparently they got embarrassed for losing their “kids”. I was like 13 years old when this happened. And I DID have my phone except I didn’t have Messenger nor did I know messaging through it was free. And no, I didn’t have any load (basically, I couldn’t text or call anyone)
Anyway, yeah, stepmom had always been horrible to us and was pretty emotionally and physically abusive. So that explains why she blamed us. And other stuff that happened at home after we got lost.
The college house party one where her friends got so concerned of her made me sad because I’m not sure my friends would be that concerned 🥺
Also the one with the rottweiler one is so adorable the fact that a dog that they thought would eat people up cuddled with him instead.
People Who ''Whet'' Missing, Where'd You Go?
That's an amazing english you got there sir.

i almost had an experience like the one at 4:06 -
was around the age of four or five, not sure, and my father was in the living room watching tv. hears something and looks over to me attempting to open the front door whilst sleepwalking. similarly, he also put a lock on this door too high for me to reach. if he hadnt been there who knows what could have happened
thought it was funny our stories are so similar wanted to share idk
Hearing all of these lost stories made me think of one of my own: I once got lost in one of the most smallest places to get lost in. It was a small arcade, mini golf, and Laser tag place. I’d went there with my mom and sister for a B-Day party. We were going to do laser tag, but me, being a chicken, decided I didn’t want to do it, and left the space before the game. Before I went in for Laser tag, my sister told me she was going to be outside of the laser tag room. But when I got there, she nor my mom weren’t there.
I asked a worker for help, they didn’t really help me. Eventually I found them OUTSIDE on the porch of the laser tag place. Turns out they were there the entire time. I’m still mad at my sister for that day.

When I was little, my old house had a garage with a door that would directly lead to the basement. It was divided in two rooms: one where my mom would do the laundry and everything was stored there, another one where most of my toys were kept since there wasn't really much space in my bedroom. At times I would go to the basement with my mom so she could do her laundry and I would just stay there and play. The door to the basement had two slide-in locks and they could NOT be opened together. Basically you open one, enter, then close the one inside and viceversa. If you get stuck in there, another person has to open the lock on the outside. Once my grandma had come over, I was 4 or 5 and we were together in the basement with my mom. At the time she was well into her 80s and had some memory problems. I was just minding my own business playing, eventually I got bored and went to check what my mom and grandma were doing. They were nowhere to be found. I tried to get out of the basement but the door was locked. I screamed at the top of my lungs and was crying like crazy. I still remember my mom opering that door. She had searched for me all over the house. Turned out my grandma had accidentally locked the door and forgotten I was still there. I honestly don't know why I didn't tell her "Grandma, I'm over here playing". At the time I hardly ever talked to anybody, usually just shut up when not at home. But yeah, apparently that was the only time I've ever gone kind of missing.
Another time, my family had just moved to a small town in Pennsylvania. We still didn't know our way around well and every corner looked the exact same to us. Well on this day I rode the school bus back to my home stop where my mother would pick me up every day. All the other kids kept leaving and after an hour or two all the other kids were gone and the only ones there were myself, and the crossing guard who was getting ready to leave. Did I mention that I didn't have a cellphone? The thought of staying all alone terrified me so I asked the crossing guard if I could use his phone. Thankfully I knew my mom's number and called her. As soon as she heard my voice she starts yelling at me asking where I've been for the past hour or two and I tell her that I've been at the bus stop the whole time! Turns out she was waiting for me in the wrong corner, since they all looked the same to us she didn't realize that it wasn't my bus stop. Had I not asked the crossing guard for his phone, I would've had to walk back home and made it at who knows what hour, in the dark...and cold.
When I was like 4 I got lost in this huge stadium after a game; everyone (about 3-5k people) was all trying to leave t the same time. I was holding on to my dad’s hand but got pushed and it slipped. I was immediately lost in a swarm of people. Thankfully I had just enough brain power to go over to a stage where they had kids separated from their families and a guy was announcing the kids’ names and their parents’ names so that the parents could easily get their kids back. My dad cane up 2 minutes later my name was announced; his face was bright red as he picked me up, said “thank you, sir” and carried me back to my family.
So, Storytime:
I was about 6 years old. It was a year after my family had moved to Florida and My extended family on my mom's side was down from up north. So they all decided that, since we were on the coast, we might as well go to the beach. 4 hours later, and we're all ready to go home.
Now, with my cousins and my siblings, there's 6 kids to keep track of, plus my aunt, uncle, mom, and dad, all starting to pile into our big blue van (that sat everyone comfortably). I felt the need to tinkle, and I DISTINCTLY remember telling my mom that I needed to use the restroom, and she said OK, just to wait until everything was packed. Well, I REALLY had to go, so I just shouted 'I'm going to the bathroom' before walking off, since a public beach bathroom was RIGHT there.
when I was finished, I walk out and discovered the big blue van was gone. I walk around the beach lot, seeing where it went, but I couldn't find it. I was walking around for about an hour, when some police officers found me (as i was starting to cry at the time). They asked me if I was lost, and I remember telling them my family left me behind. I remember sitting in the back of the police car, when I see my dad rushing up. (Note: back then he worked for the FDLE and actually knew the officers, so explaining what happened was easy for him.)
APPARENTLY , they got ALL THE WAY home before realizing that I wasn't in the van. they left as soon as I had entered the bathroom. And didn't bother to double check how many kids they had in the van. Dad broke many speed limits getting to the beach lot, and drove up just in time to see me being loaded into a police car.
I would say that this was the last time I 'got lost' but...honestly, I was a little 'independent' as a kid, and had to basically be carried/hand held when we went to theme parks and such until i learned.

Looking back, having to deal with 6 kids would have been hectic, but then again my mom was not the most...attentive person, and was usually concerned with herself ...but that's a story for another time.
Missing person: i sleep
Finding out a cat accidentally got locked up in my shed overnight: devastating life experience
I got lost during a parade once, with my dad and cousin. I preschool age (4-6 years old), and went through the crowd to throw away a banana peel, and couldn’t find my way back. I remember running, crying behind the crowd that separated my dad and I, and just feeling scared as hell. I ended up finding him and my cousin again, and never wandered away again.
I’m just starting to go to parades again, but this time I’m apart of a high school marching band. So that’s a bit of comfort. I still panic when I think about crying and running behind the crowd. It was really scary
Missing people of reddit, where are you?
I don’t know, it’s like home but it’s dark and cold. Last thing I remember before I woke up here was flickering lights and a weird looking flower outside my window.

I didn't go missing. per se, it was my entire class that went missing from me.
When I was in first grade, I don't remember what I was doing, some assignment or art project or something, all I remember is that I had my head down, focusing on my desk. Maybe I fell asleep? Idk, it didn't feel like it, it felt like no time had passed at all. I just know is that when I put my head down the whole class was there, teacher and all, and when I looked up everybody was gone, teacher and all.
Now, I was particularly excited about that day because, as a treat for the class, we were all going to walk down to the ice cream stand and get ice cream for everybody. This was in the mid-80s so I guess taking a whole class of 6-year-olds out for a walk was nbd. I wasn't sure when they left so I literally ran out of the school trying to see if I could see the group and catch up. Stupidly, I ran past the school office and the secretary saw me and pulled me back in. I had to sit in the office for 20 minutes until they returned.
I was more upset that my class left to get ice cream without me than I was about apparently losing (5? 10?) minutes of time when my entire class stomped out of the classroom without me noticing. I don't know if the teacher got in trouble for leaving me behind. Like, did she not notice me? She's was one of the nicer teachers, so I can't imaging she wouldn't wake me up if I had been asleep or that she could purposefully leave a 6-year-old alone in a classroom for the hour it took to walk to the ice cream stand, enjoy the treat, and walk back. My parents never mentioned it, so I'm not sure if the school even told them.
It's one of the weird things that have happened in my life. I always thought something weird happened in that 5-10 minutes. Like, did I blink out of reality? It seriously felt like I looked up and everybody in my class just disappeared.
I have 2 stories, that I didn’t exactly go missing, but it’s sort of fitting to this topic:
1#
I remember when I was about 10, I was visiting my grandparents, and my grandma decided to take me to this small goodwill store . Well I kind of wondered off, since it was small, and I was like testing out the bikes. (I left my phone in the car) All of a sudden, I heard on the intercom: “[My name] please IMMEDIATELY report to the front cash register”
I was so embarrassed.

My nanny from when I was little (whom I’m still in contact with) told me this story.
I can’t really remember the whole details of the story, but I think I was about 4-6 years old when it happened.
I remember my nanny, my brother, and my best friend and her brother(who she also babysat) were outside playing, and they left me inside for something. (I think I was sleeping or something)
But when they got back to the door to go inside, it was locked, so I obviously locked it, thinking they left it unlocked, (and because my parents were always telling me to lock the door)
So she started panicking, since she didn’t have a key with, so they had to like call my friend’s parents from work to go home to unlock the door, so they had to just leave me inside unattended for like an hour, while my friend’s parents came.
Let’s just say, I was in big trouble.

Do you understand the cosmic ramifications of typos?
You can just edit the typo dude
Why would they delete it?
They went missing obviously
When I was 6 years old, I woke up around 5am one day, got bored, and decided to go to my cousins house. When I got there they were confused why I was “allowed” to visit so early (they only lived a couple blocks away and I would visit all the time by myself) but they didn’t question it. A couple hours passed and my parents had already woken up, saw that I was missing, went searching for me, called everyone they could think of, then finally called my cousins not thinking that I would go there without permission that early in the morning. Fast forward fifteen minutes, I was back home, in a lot of trouble, and grounded for a week.
I have two stories like this.
Once when I was four I was at my cousins with my 2 year old younger brother while my mother went to her baby shower (she was pregnant with oldest younger sister, I'm oldest of 6 kids.) We had all been watching something on TV, probably Care Bears, and I decided to take my little brother and go find my mother. I don't remember how we got back, only that we were gone for several hours, and neither of us were wearing shoes.
Then when I was six I decided to play with a friend from school who lived near me, without telling my parents. I hadn't realized how much time had passed and my father was looking for me like crazy. He almost called the cops till he found me playing in a large hedge with my friend.
So, yeah. Those are my missing person stories.
Here when the title still says “whet” in the title
so this is a good one from me
When I was 9 me and my friend Dani were going to have a playdate after school (Our school was pretty crappy)
My mom is parked ready to pick us up and the police officer tells her to circle back around because she was there to long. I see her leave and thinks she left us. I tell Dani I'll take her to my house (My house is like 3 minutes away and I remember the way there) so I start walking there and she freaks out "Emma I saw this tree three times!" "Dani shush thats a birch they all look the same" She just kept complaining. So I get tired of it and start being all "Oh no I dont know where we are!" (I always knew she was just annoying) she starts crying and I keep up the act until I see my neighbors house and go "Hey thats my neighbors house!". We get to my house and theres 3 police cars and my Grandma apparently my mom freaked out and called cops right away. I didnt get in trouble just a hour of "I was so worried!" "you should've been more careful!" It was a love hate situation. Dani's mom wont let us hang out anymore. Jokes on her shes missing out-
What makes it better is that we were and still are having a problem with cats and kids going missing with the old "We have candy" trick so it was way more worrying
We went camping when I was somewhere around 9-10. There was an outhouse on a hill pretty high up from our camp out. It had a lock from the inside but also one from the outside too so animals couldn't get in. Well, I used the bathroom and left, as my brother who was waiting walked in. Just out of instinct(we had been there for a few days) I locked it from the outside(believe it or not I really didn't mean to lock him in there). Well, there being no way to unlock that particular lock from inside, he was now trapped in there. An hour later, we all realize he is missing. We freak out trying to find him, even taking a raft across the lake to this little island that we liked to hang out at. Finally, my dad goes and checks the bathroom. Lo and behold, there he is. He was surprisingly chill about it, but he had literally lost his voice after yelling for help so much, but the hill being so far up no one heard him. The only thing he was mad about was that the smell was terrible.
I got two fairly funny "missing" stories.
The first really doesn't have much extra elaboration, since I don't remember it very well, but when I was a toddler, I loved playing in the clothing racks in stores like Sears, JCPenny, or Macy's whenever my mom took me out to the mall. There was one time I must have decided to play hide n' seek and didn't think to tell her, so she was frantically looking everywhere until I snuck out of one of those circular racks giggling.
The second was in 7th grade, my first year at this new Charter school. Wellness class (what they called Gym), we went outside to this nearby park that consists of a large playing field, jungle gym/swings, and a little grove of trees. There were plenty of places to hide when playing manhunt, but naive little me though it was a small enough space that people could easily be found when the game ends. After picking out a probably too-good hiding spot, I learned I was wrong, and came out of my hiding spot after not being caught for awhile. The whole-ass park was deserted, save for a couple women and their kids. I asked them, and it turns out class had ended and everybody went back and completely forgot about me. Needless to say I wasn't a big fan of Manhunt after that.
I legit went with my sister to her friend's house right in front of where we lived 😂💀
i accidently went missing by biking to far without my parents who thought i went back to the camp with them, they searched for for 2 hours before my dad found me and soon after my worried mom who biked after me, there was a creepy man though under a bridge, but hey im still here sooo... xD
For now.
I was 14 and depressed. School was a nightmare and my home was a nightmare too, with abusive parents and all that. First I started bunking off school and then I didn't bother to come back home. Spent the nights in forests and local parks while police looked for me.
*hugs* Stay alive, okay?
I was 7 years old riding bikes with my family and the neighbor's kid on a trail a couple miles from our neighborhood. They were going pretty fast, and before long I was left behind. I wasn't too worried, until I realized how behind I was. Then it started to get dark, and I start to panic. I drop the bike and start running. It's getting darker and darker. Night time. After following the trail for a few hours, a mess from screaming, running, ect. I see a large opening (backyard to someone's home in my neighborhood) and thank God a guy was outside and saw me. He ran to me and made sure I was okay, then helped me find my house. When my parents opened the door, they went completely white. They thought I was at the next door neighbor's house the whole time.
They never knew I was gone. To give you an idea of how long this took place, we started our bike ride at about 2 pm. I didn't get home until about 8.
Even when I'm grounded and had my phone taken away if I had to go to school they'd give me it and say not to play games and such.
