A friend of ours has a teenage daughter (very severely afflicted, entirely nonverbal) who left home once (their home is very safe, she went out a window) and the Peel Region Police were at her home in under a minute, had a perimeter set up in under five, and began searching in under thirty minutes. She was found two hours later by an off duty officer. Not all these stories have happy endings but I know the constabulary takes these events VERY seriously.Barry Hudsonnoreply@blogger.com
