I have a 19yr old son who has recently spent time as an inpatient in a psychiatric facility & a 14yr old daughter. I fell asleep watching TV tonight & heard the front door slam at what I guess would be 10pm ish. I assumed my son had gone out. I’ve now come to bed at 11.30, both my kids are not in the house, what do I do now?!

I’ve rung them both & text them both asking where they are - no reply.

I hope they're home by now OP. If I didn't know where my 14 yr old daughter was at gone midnight, I'd ring the police.

Do you have family phone tracking set up?

@HappyBunny120

She must have school in the morning.

Have you located her/them, OP?

Thanks for the responses, appreciate it, they walked through the door about 5 mins after I called the police. Two officers came out to speak to them / us & only just left. Long night!

Glad they are home. Why did they leave?

Phew! You must have been very relieved after that OP. I'm glad they're home and all is well, although would be giving them both a rocketing in the morning.

What the hell, why did they leave

Were they watching football with friends?
Glad they're home safely wherever they were @HappyBunny120.
Time to put your foot down big time.
