    For those that don’t know. On FB at the moment people, mainly teenagers, are ‘being challenged’ by friends (similar to the ice bucket challenge) to ‘go missing’ from home for 72 hours. Their parents, generally unaware naturally panic and the Gardai are called and involved and obvious resources are wasted. Not to mention that in some cases there are kids/teenagers out on the streets unprotected and vulnerable.
