You Can Help Bring These 9 Texas Boys Home Who Missing in August

It's never easy writing about the subject of kids that have gone missing in Texas. A lot of the time, we have no idea of the circumstances around their disappearance. They could have run away, they could have been kidnapped or they could have been taken by the other parent during a visitation. No matter the circumstance, in August, nine families reported their boys missing in Texas.
