violet,
i (well my brother who lives in teh same state as sister) filed a missing person report for my sister - it is mentioned in the paperwork for dcfs - everyone has told me that the more agencies you have documenting what is going on the better for yourself - at least if something legal comes up (in my case custody of sisters lil guys 2 & 4 - in your case custody/divorce) - i think it's good to have a trail of *legally right* stuff - then all the bs in the world won't matter - right????...
love,
s
