May 25th is National Missing Childrens Day in the USA.
The possibility of losing your child or children forever is a parent's worst nightmare. After 33 years the NYPD finally caught the person who abducted and murdered Etan Patz, a 6 year old on his way to school.

The parents at the time were criticized for "allowing" their six year old to walk by himself. It raises a lot of serious questions about how much we should "protect" our children. Is the world more dangerous now then it was back in the 60s and 70s or are we simply more aware of the dangers. At what age would you let your child roam around unaccompanied?
