No doubt you have heard about a missing 3 year old. Reports are that a young person has been seen alone. Maybe it might be worth going to the child and making checking out the situation !!!
sadly thats tghe price to pay of our present society its not that nobody cares, but they do not want any kind of legal action taken should they approach the child.
I think I'd take that risk because I'd prefer to make sure that child was back home safe rather leave them all alone.
Re: sadly thats tghe price to pay of our present society I found a little girl once on the Kenwood estate (Hampstead Heath) where I worked, 8am in the morning. Distressed 5/6 yr old, Holly I think - her Mam had gone jogging and told her to stand there til she got back. ******** to that thought I. I told her my name and should her my photo ID, then took her into the house, (historic old house ran by English Heritage) where a lady colleague took over consoling the poor thing. The irresponsibility astounded me then and now. So Mummy eventually rolls up 40 minutes later, obviously distressed as well what with her child not being where she had left it. Reunited, Mummy then then starts kicking off - how dare someone move her child and how she had every mind to phone the police. Until this point she didn't know exactly who the fiend was who had brought her child in out of the cold and kept her safe. A manager was busy trying to appease the mental cow (no authority over me though, I'm conservation), when I stepped in and owned up and invited the woman to go ahead and call the police and why don't we give social services a bell while we're at it. At which point silly ******** leaves dragging the poor kid with her and berating it for not waiting all alone in a cold, strange place for over an hour while Mumsy went jogging with her stupid mate. This was a supposedly well healed, middle class woman from Hampstead/Highgate too, by the way.
