✅ always in the car ✅ poor diet ✅ unable to walk

What's the issue? Sounds like any American kid in the sunurbs.

Holy shit. So the father was crazy or what? How can so many people fail to do anything when a kid disappears?

The father is clearly disturbed and I hope the boy can receive all the support he needs.
