I did suggest calling the authorities, but OH wanted to try and find the parents first.To be fair to the parents, I don't think they noticed. This can happen, especially when distracted at something like a wedding, and especially if someone says, 'oh she's over there', or you see some other child and think it is yours.I did manage to get lost on a couple of occasions as a child - it happens, and my parents were very attentive.I'll pass on your compliments to my OH. Thanks.Kind regards,Alex Yes, it is frightening Judith. I did suggest calling the authorities, but OH wanted to try and find the parents first.

To be fair to the parents, I don’t think they noticed. This can happen, especially when distracted at something like a wedding, and especially if someone says, ‘oh she’s over there’, or you see some other child and think it is yours.

I did manage to get lost on a couple of occasions as a child – it happens, and my parents were very attentive.

I’ll pass on your compliments to my OH. Thanks.

Kind regards,

Alex

What bothers me is that after 2 hours missing, it looks like the parents and wedding guests had not instituted anything official? How could that be? I would have had the military involved after 20 minutes, and you can ask my kid what happened when I couldn't find her! As they say, it takes a village, and I am glad your OH is part of our village. Give her my compliments. That’s just chilling, Alex. What bothers me is that after 2 hours missing, it looks like the parents and wedding guests had not instituted anything official?
