Conversations With My Daughter
~ by Jay

Mom, did you hear that Erica ran away?


Yes. I talked to her mother this morning. 

How long was she gone? What happened?


About 12 hours. She met a man on the internet and she agreed to meet him, and she went with him.

That's scary. Why would she do that?

It's really scary. I think she was pretty angry with her parents. She's still angry with them for bringing her home.

Well, everyone gets angry, but getting in a car with a stranger - that's SCARY.

I know.

I would NEVER do that.

I'm glad to hear it.

I would be too scared to run away. I might get angry and tell you I hate you and I don't want to live in your house any more, but I wouldn't run away.

I hope Erica is okay and was safe during her time with the man. This is a kid roughly your daughter's age?

She's a bit older than Eve. She's home safe, at least physically. Scary, scary, scary.
