Every year thousands of children are reported missing to authorities across the country, but thankfully the vast majority of them are soon found safe and sound. For the few ongoing cases that remain unsolved, police and families work tirelessly to keep the investigation active and leads coming in. All they need is one clue to help break the case wide open and it can come at any time. When one young boy went missing in Texas, his family could have never imagined how it would play out. It’s a case that has stunned everyone involved and it really makes you wonder how could this have happened?
This past June 13, 2019 marked the 25th anniversary of the date that Nicholas Barclay went missing from San Antonio, Texas. He was just 13 years old when he went to play basketball with some friends near his house and afterwards he disappeared without a trace. His family did not report him missing at first because they thought he had run away and would soon be back. He had already run away from home several times before and had a troubled history of behavior. The police had been called to the house several times after he’d argued with his mother and he would also talk back to his teachers and skip school.
It got to the point where he had a sentencing hearing scheduled to see if he should be placed in a juvenile home, which he was vehemently opposed to. The night he disappeared was the day before the hearing, which was another reason why his family assumed he’d run off, to avoid going to court. By the time a missing person report was filed, and the police started searching, the trail had already gone cold. There were few clues to follow up on and no one seemed to have seen Nicholas.
Three years went by with no leads until one day authorities in Spain called and claimed they had found a boy who looked like Nicholas. They said he claimed to be 16 years old and had told them how he’d been kidnapped from America and trafficked to Europe before he finally managed to escape. Overjoyed that the long missing boy had finally been found, the Barclay family welcomed him back with open arms.
From the start the family noticed that the Nicholas they had known had changed a bit. However, they’d also been warned that he’d been through a lot and so when he seemed to act and look different than what they’d remembered, they didn’t really question it. His eyes and hair color were much darker than before, which he attributed to his captors having dyed and medically changed them in order to alter his appearance in a bid to conceal his identity. He also seemed to speak with a French accent, but he told them he was forbidden to speak English the whole time and had picked up his kidnapper’s accent. Not wanting to upset and question him too much after all he’d been through, the family let their suspicions slide and tried to get back to normal.
One man who couldn’t ignore the obvious differences was a private investigator named Charlie Parker. He didn’t buy the boy’s story and noticed that rather than being upset by what he claimed to have gone through, the boy was incredibly open about it all and retold his story to anyone who’d listen. He thought it was an imposter pretending to be Nicholas and after studying pictures of the two closely something finally jumped out at him and blew a hole in the boy’s story. The person claiming to be Nicholas did not have ears that looked anything like the missing boy’s ears.
A person’s ears are like their fingerprints, uniquely individual and unchanging with time. Since the ears did not match up, investigators, the Barclay family, and police finally knew the boy was lying and could not be Nicholas. It turned out that the boy was actually a 23 year old French man named Frederic Bourdin. He was a renowned con artist who’d been nicknamed “the Chameleon” by Interpol for posing as missing children and stealing hundreds of different identities. When Spanish police found him, they’d made an offhand remark about how he looked like the missing boy Nicholas Barclay, and from there he assumed the boy’s identity.
Naturally the Barclay family was stunned and heartbroken when they heard the news that they’d been lied to and that Nicholas was still missing. They had wanted to believe it was him so badly that they’d convinced themselves it was, despite the obvious differences. Due to all the strange twists and mysterious circumstances in the case, no one knows for sure who to believe or what really happened.

Mom Left Daddy With The Baby Alone For The First Time But What The Camera Caught Is Hilarious!

New moms often find that it can be really hard to leave their newborn babies, even if it’s just for a short time. They want the peace of mind knowing their child is safe, sound, and well taken care of and no one else knows their baby as well as they do. It’s natural for a mother to be hesitant about leaving their infants in the care of another person, but it’s also inevitable.
Usually a close family member or friend looks after the newborn when mommy steps out, and it’s likely daddy will spend a lot of one on one time with the baby too. One couple decided to do a hilarious take on what a father might get up to when he’s left alone with a baby, and the outcome is a little quirky and a lot entertaining.
The clip features YouTube personality Elle Walker from the WhatsUpMoms channel, her brother-in-law Greg, and niece Brooklyn. After mom and her friend leave the man of the house takes over and he quickly gets to work feeding and cleaning up after his youngster.
When he can’t find a top to the baby bottle, he improvises with a piece of Glad Press’n Seal wrap. The stuff does the job so well that it ends up inspiring him. Once he gets the baby down for a nap he sets out around the house cleaning up and organizing toys, closets, the fridge and more as he goes.
The wrap also came in handy for keeping baby essentials close by, like the binky and bottle. When mom finally returns home she’s shocked at the sight that awaits her. Check it out, you might gain some good ideas from it.

We all know that twins can be either identical or fraternal. In the case of fraternal twins, they may be of the same sex or not; despite the fact that they are not identical, there is usually a strong physical resemblance. What do you think you would feel if your twin boys looked nothing alike?!
A woman in Vietnam and her husband, immediately noted how dissimilar their twins were. They even questioned if one of the twins actually belonged to someone else, and a mistake had been made in the nursery. They didn’t actually enquire if this was true, and brought their twins home.
As the babies began to grow, the parents became more and more suspicious about how dissimilar their looks were. When they were two, the mom decided to have their DNA tested, as she was so distressed by her suspicion that something was off… What was found was astounding!
The DNA test showed that the twins had the same mother but DIFFERENT FATHERS! This was a result of what is termed “bi-paternal conception”. In the video you are about to watch below, you will hear the amazing explanation of how such a thing is even possible. All I can say is WOW!

Worrying about your kids is one of the main things you do once you have them. Since the beginning of history this has always been the case. Parents instinctually want to keep their offspring protected and safe at all times. The problem is especially in today’s world, sneaky and suspicious trouble can be lurking around right under your nose with you even knowing it.
Now that pretty much all children have their own computer or use a family computer, the dangers of the internet are something parents need to stay on top of at all times. If they aren’t vigilant and keeping track of their child’s online activity, tragedies can easily occur! You never truly know who you are actually talking to on the other end of that chat you are in.

Today’s story features a father named Scott Jenkins who already has his hands full with two amazing daughters! Over a pretty short period of time, Scott began to notice his older daughter’s behavior was beginning to drastically change. He couldn’t quite put a finger on what was going on and when he would ask her, like many young kids she just told him she’s fine.
One day, his parenting instincts kicked into full gear, he got ahold of his daughters iPad and began going through all her online activity. He noticed a few odd things but nothing too crazy, but then he noticed she was having an ongoing conversation with Bruce a 15 year old kid who didn’t seem weird at first. There was just something off about her conversations with him so he continued to dive deeper into her online history.
He noticed she was in a group chat with ‘friends’ that he had never heard of and she had been uploading pictures that were a bit too much for a girl of her age. As he gathered evidence and was trying to put together why she had been acting so strange lately, he realized that 4 of the guys in the chat were actually full grown men!
The rage built inside him, but he stayed calm, brought her iPad to the cyber crimes unit at the police station and then waited. Soon he got a call back from the department and they told him he had disturbing news and him and his whole family should come down to the station!
What first surfaced as just a strange parenting gut feeling would soon snowball and unravel into something Bruce could never have dreamed up…

Anybody who has a child know they are like little parrots. Whatever they see mom or dad doing they attempt to mimic their behavior. There is nothing better than a little kid proving to themselves that they can do anything their parents can do. Not only do they shadow your every move, their little brains and eyes are locked on you at all times, soaking in every last drop of information their minds can handle.
Many daughters want to be just like their mommy! They will was watch their mama get ready, buy putting on beautiful dresses, doing their hair and finally doing their makeup. It is always fun to play dress up and become a little princess. Most of the time nothing goes wrong and everything is just fine..
However, there are exceptions to this which we will cover in the following article and video. Parent’s Kylie and Tony Cravens got their baby girl toy makeup to wear which was supposedly completely harmless. When they got home from the store, their daughter obviously wanted to immediately try her new toy makeup. Mama helped her apply it and all was well, everyone was smiling, laughing and having a good time.
Then out of no where the toddler began to feel ill and broke out in rashes all over her face. At first she just felt a little burning, then the pain became more and more excruciating. Blisters we’re beginning to form in all the areas they applied the make up to. At this point her parents rushed her to the hospital because they obviously could sense something was very wrong with their baby.
The doctor told them this was clearly some type of anaphylactic allergic reaction to the toy makeup she had applied. It got so bad that those blisters led to swelling of her whole head and she was in a lot of pain.
Mom wanted to spread the word about her daughters situation so she posted it on social media and it quickly went viral!

Mother Has a Baby Carrier On As She Mows The Lawn. She’s Stunned When a Cop Comes Up Her Driveway!

Motherhood is definitely the hardest job in the world. The clock never stops, it’s 24/7 365 no days off! Taking care of your children requires you to cook, clean, discipline and every other thing in between with no breaks, no time off and no quitting! This job can become so overwhelming and many people who haven’t been through it, just don’t get how hard tiring it can get. Now imagine having multiple kids and watch how quick your hours and amount of work per/day exponentially increase. With all that being said let’s just take a moment, to appreciate all the hardworking moms out there, grinding every single day to give their children a better life than they had!
This now brings us to today’s story, featuring a hardworking mother of named Rachel Brinley. Rachel has 3 amazing children and a husband name Ryan who has a high-stress job which keeps him in the office basically at all times! This leaves Rachel at home doing all the mothering for most of the week on her own. With that being said, when Ryan is home he helps as much as he can, but he has to take care and provide for his family and the old work schedule just doesn’t allow him any time off.
One morning Rachel noticed that the lawn was looking unkempt, messy and way too over grown. While mowing the lawn is usually dad’s favorite chore, he was so slammed at work that he just couldn’t find a spot in his busy schedule to cut it. Mom’s 2 older kids were busy getting their little brains filled with knowledge and wisdom at school. Her youngest was only 4 months at the time so she had her hands full. The sun was shining, a cool breeze was blowing and the temperature was just perfect. She decided she would mow the lawn and bring her adorable 4 month old to get some fresh air in those baby lungs.
She picked up the babe put her in a baby carrier which went over her shoulders and held the baby on her chest comfortably. She grabbed the lawn mower and began mowing the tall grass. She had been cutting the grass for 10-20 minutes when she looked up with complete surprise as a police officer had pulled into his driveway with the lights on! She thought was she breaking a law? Did she do something wrong? Was her husband okay? Did Ryan break the law? She didn’t know but her mind was running a mile a minute as time seemed too slow to a screeching halt.
The cop opened his door, stepped out and slowly walked towards her. She asked him if everything was okay and he assured her nothing was wrong and everything was in fact okay. He explained he was driving by, saw a mom working her butt off, with a baby strapped to her and thought he could do a solid, pay it forward and help her out by mowing the lawn for her! Rachel was still in shock, thinking that she broke a law or something happened to her husband, but she got her wits about her and told the officer of course he could!
She went inside to grab a nice cool drink for the officer and took a photo with her phone because she knew nobody would believe this. The policeman finished the lawn in record time and Rachel was so thankful for his help. Her faith in humanity was restored she thought, wow there are still good people out there!
That night she posted her pic on social media with the whole story captioned. She just wanted people to know how great law enforcement and sheriffs department was in her town. She never thought in a million years her picture would go mega viral on the internet. Everyone was so moved by this small special deed and it hit everyone right in their heart strings!
This story is a great reminder to everyone out there, that no matter how bad things get and how scary the world seems, there are still wonderful and good people out there doing good deeds. So if you ever see someone who you could help it would probably be a good idea for you to pay it forward! 🙂
