Sharie: I'm so glad you found her! My heart goes out just knowing it took this long to find her. I have a 15 year old and she wondered off 1 night for just a few hours.(Supposibly was confused to how she had gotten there) I still don't know the truth....I threw up and was so upset when told the next step would be to put her picture on a milk carton if she was not found....Real Nice! She is usually consistant. When I can't find her I freek out. It is the worst nightmare not knowing where your daughter is when they don't normally do this things! I also do not accept the fact that she ran away!

I am so happy your daughter is home safe. Do not let the words of others get you down. You know the truth and that is all you need. Some people are so unhappy with their own lives that it makes them feel better to lash out at others.

Did you know RV Lady, I happen to watch my daughter very closely, who just happened to have brain surgery 3 times last month at childrens hospital in the middle of the night, and that is my daughter you are saying whats the matter with these parents, THAT IS WHY SHE IS AT RISK.........Dont judge, unless you actually know who you are talking about, you have no right, She is forgetful and confused from the surgeries, and will listen to almost anyone, Thats what all people think when they go missing, Well let me tell you the police department commended me today in the return of Amber Lynne Brakeman, because yes i do actually care about my daughter...So your comment should be somewhere other than the public to read your stupidity...Sharie Bohlin, Mother of Amber Lynne Brakeman who came home at 4am this morning...

RV Lady, this girl is 16 and has a capacity of an 11 or 12 year old. Not exactly of an age that she needs to be constatntly watched. I am sure her parents give her the opportunity to learn independence and how to function in the real world. They should not be blamed. It is better to look for the positive than looking for the negative.
