Of late children keep getting lost but until you are a direct victim you can never tell how flicking scary the ordeal is. Just the other day i thought i had lost my 3 years old nephew and it was at around 7.00 PM. He left the house and went to the barber shop where we take him to have his hair cut. At that hour he cannot be able to trace his way back home and the barber does not know where we stay. I was so scared but thanks God i found him before his parents could come back.

@Missmwngi Glad you found him and hope it never happens again. Just in case you should give the barber your phone number so he can call if your nephew ever does this again.

Hey Margaret!
Wow, that must have been a scary occasion. He is only three years old, but seems to be so wise to get out of house and go to the barber shop! Does he use to do that alone? I can't imagine what it would look like for a three year old boy to be wandering alone in the streets.
I can imagine the despair for losing a child. I'm really glad that you could find him and that all is well. Now you guys should work on enhancing his safety, by trying to difficult his exit if he tries to leave by himself again.
Respectfully.

For sure it was so scary and now we have restricted his movements in the house. He can only go out with his elder sister and not alone
