Do you think a European Child Alert system would work?

http://uk.news.yahoo.com/afp/20080708/twl-eu-justice-children-missing-a2f61c0.html

Despite the fact that many missing children are found locally, within hours of being reported missing, don't you think its worth the time, energy & effort to launch a full scale European alert system to ensure even one little lost child being reunited with family???

Answer 1

I thought Europeans lock their kids in their basements for 20 years, how is an alert system going to help with that?

Answer 2

Amber Alert works here in Canada.  Yes, if only one child were found it is well worth it.  What if it was your child?????

Answer 3

It should - where there's a will there's a way. However, european politicians will not feel any cash benefit from it and therefore will probably be totally disinterested. It's time to disband the EEC.

Answer 4

i think it would be a great idea

Answer 5

Most definitely YES.

Answer 6

No.  Nothing works in Europe.  "An Integrated and Co-operative Europe" is a delusional concept within the brains of certain politicians.

Answer 7

it helps here in the USA, we call it "Amber Alert"

i didn't know they had the same thing in Canada, makes sense though, cool

Answer 8

If it only helps to find one missing child a year it will be well worth it. The alternative is nothing at all.   Missing children  deserve more than that .
