Missing Girls: Elsa and Celia Fitch

Two sister's of one of Austin's friends are missing from our area. They have been missing for a week now and their family is devastated. I don't know what I can do to help other than spread their information here and pray that everything works out ok.

Someone online encouraged them to run away and gave them help. They were picked up at the end of their driveway by an adult. They were heavily involved in an online role playing game and the authorities are in touch with an adult woman who helped them plan their run.

Keep your kids safe...know what they are doing online! This is a great reason to talk with them about the dangers...it sparked a great discussion at our house.

OMG, so scary. Who would help girls that age run away? I shudder to think about it. I sure hope they are ok and not being abused somehow.

Yes, this is really terrible. Keep kids safe - talk to them about life, but of course they won't listen, so you have to hook them up with other family members and friends who can help them to see how it can be. It really does take a village. Kids need safe alternatives to just about everything in their lives. Vicky and Nina, please let your children know that their grandparents are there for them, no questions asked.
