Fellow Bermudians(british overseas citizens)
If you do not like the above comment then return the passports…..

What if….

The communication between mother and daughter is via text.

Majority of the comments here are very dangerous and premature. If you know where she is then call the police or her family. If you do not, then stop.

Everyone is so quick to judge both the girl and the mother, but none of us have the whole story! That the police have taken it upon themselves to raise an alert, it should be obvious that something is amiss. Perhaps she’s being held somewhere against her will or has found herself in a situation and is afraid to return home for fear of the consequences. This could account for her having contacted her mother but either cannot or will not return home. Having run away at least twice before, she may well have good reason to not want to return home. Then again, she may simply be a girl that feels she can lead an independent life without restrictions being imposed by a parent. We do not know what is going on in the girl’s life or in her head. No matter what the reason, she obviously needs help. I just hope she’s not come to harm.

ok so i wish i could say that i understand but i don’t. yes her mother has appealed to the public for assistance, which is a step, but i believe everyone is wondering how the heck is this young lady still contacting her mother yet refuses to come home. it’s time to stop being friend and time to start being parent. i’m a single mother myself and there’s no way my child would be able to get away with this. i’d HUNT him down if necessary. look, i know it’s rough, but sometimes you gotta lose your mind at least once to show your kids how serious you are. no more miss nice mom.

Is there not a responsible adult at the house the girl is staying at? Who wouldn’t do the right thing and call the mother who must be worried sick?

I am a single mother of three doing it on my own but it all boils down to how you raise your children because i can guarantee you that after the first time it definitely wouldn’t be a second…..

Hey United since you call your self United! Go help the mother find her daughter and Unite them do something positive with all your energy! When you have children no matter how good of a parent you are they stray at times. Even in 2 parent house holds. So quick to judge people!!! Stay strong to her mother who is fighting to save her young daughter from a horrible path.

This girl needs to be diciplined, never would i have ever had the nerve to run away from my home without the fear of what i was returning to. being as this is at least the thrid time shes done this, means she comes home to no more than a ‘bad girl’ speech. Better keep an eye on her before she comes home with another baby for the mother to take care of.

On a more important note.

Where are the fathers? It’s to much broken homes in Bermuda. Why hasn’t the father put out a “look out” for his daughter. Or does he just not care.

Unfortunately, we can no longer discipline our kids. We have relinquished all parental rights to governments that think they know what’s best for US and our kids. You know, they went to college so they know better.

I remember going to Warwick Sec, Randy Horton was principal. Man, when they called out your name because you were disrespectful or acted in a punk type way, Mr. Horton had the cane CANE in his hand and if Mr. Horton’s massive frame didn’t scare you, the cane hitting the palm of your hand straightened you right out.

All that is gone now. Too bad.

Excuse! There thousands if not millions of single parent homes throughout this world where the children are well rounded. It is NOT anyone elses’ responsibility to raise the child. If the child were abducted that would be something differen. But to summon the police where they have their hands full with all the gun violence to look for the petulant little, spoiled child. That is irresponsible!

I am a friend of the mother who does how best with her daughter without a father present in her life. She has raised her daughter the best that she could on her own. Before you know the facts stop jumping to conclusions that it is the parents fault. She is doing everything in her power to get her daughter home. If something happened to that young lady then people would be complaining that the mother did nothing. It is a losing battle. If she was a parent that didnt care about her child she would not be trying to have get her daughter returned home. SMH!

This is a waste of reporting space for important issues! This girl is clearly not missing…. shes just not doing what her parents want! Stop wasting peoples time …. when i first read it I was concerned for her safety… These people need to stop crying wolf… when their child really does go missing no one is going to care…
Get a hold of your children and stop making it everyone elses issue!!!

What tax dollars? They’re asking if you see her to please call. I know that times are hard but the cost of a phone call is not that much. It’s not like they’ve formed a search party and are actively hunting for her. Isn’t this the best way to search for a person in Bermuda? Put it into the public eye that she is missing and ask for the public to call in if you see her. I don’t see anything wrong with that.

i completly agree with everything you said point boi. i am now 28 yrs old,but when i was that age i ran away not beacuse i was wild but because i just didn’t want to be home with a drunk father and a mother who was to afraid of him to stand up for herself. maybe this young lady just needs to talk to someone and say how she is feeling it could be some deep hidden issues y she has run away.

Its the parents that need licks…she hasn’t gone ‘missing’ she just doesn’t want to be at home. Lots of question marks why she has done this at least twice. I think we focus on the misbehavior rather than what causes it. She’ll come home when she ready to, probably already told her mother exactly like that.

Let them learn the hard way! On the streets or whatever they are doing. Sometimes these young people think that they are grown. Lets just hope she grows up, before she ends up somewhere she doesnt want to be.

Its called “SHACKUP” every so often young girls get drawn in to the homes of guys that Brainwash them. once both parties have had a wonderful time they usually part. It will take strong willpower for the girl to break away from these happy drugged up clowns!

because maybe according to the law, she is not a legal adult. I believe you have to be 18 in most countries. And just because she is on contact with her mother, doesnt mean that she isnt somewhere that she shouldnt be. We dont need anymore tragedies in Bermuda.

If the girl is in contact with her mom then why waste tax dollars for searching for her? Could this be a case of a runaway child? Don’t want to sound callous but the story does say that she has contacted or is in contact with her mom.
