I’m not sure how this is managed, but IMO the police should be given immediate access to a child’s socials from the platform provides if they have become a missing person.
Parents on here, how do you manage your child’s right to privacy versus protecting them from being groomed from creeps? It must be a real challenge.
Children going missing is a much bigger problem than many of us realise. I’m sure users from all over the UK could post links of children and young people currently missing in their areas. There is more that can be done to alert each other and try to help these kids.
