I agree with John Baker. Every young child and their parents can learn something from this experience. The boy and his parent's could've done better, but I can't see myself being anything other than happy that this boy was found. Having taught children around his age, I know how I would feel if one of them went missing.

I do, however, resent his parents falling back on his being born premature for making mistakes. I was 3 months premature, born weighing 1.5 pounds, and almost blind. I still found my way here!
