    I work as a Primary School Teacher - and I have heard the children talking about friends who have gone missing for 2-3 days.

    Some of the children think that those that survived the 2 nights as "legends"....I am cross, angry and do feel that if your child is under (12 -small)....there is no reason for that child to be out alone

    Your thread title references 'missing teenagers' but then your post speaks about under 12s.

    They aren't Lurch this isn't how to summon them.

    The weekly news seems to be full of these kids that go missing, apparently the majority of them purposely do it to try make the national news and then receive kudos amongst their peers.

    But authorities have to take each case very seriously just in case it's another Cameron or Ana tragedy.

    Bonus points for those when you Google their name have been 'missing' a couple of times before in the last 12 months. I think 3 times in the last 8 months is the record.

    I find a bit of casual racism usually helps summon them...

    If a 12-year-old thinks their friend is missing then that probably isn't the case. It might be made up entirely by them, exaggerated, or the friend just told them that they stayed out for three nights straight. I doubt this is a genuinely common trend among Irish children.

    We're still awaiting a coherent sentence from Teech. I'd imagine the kids were too.
