I checked the website out and can't believe that they didn't provide a picture with the article.

A picture might be nice.

The little girl was found May 5 when the father dropped her off with a stranger

Good Lord! The father abandons her with a stranger and the mother hasn't come forward in two weeks? Even if the mother is under the impression that the father is supposed to be looking after her, who wouldn't have spoken (on the phone)to the child during that amount of time? Maybe mommy's a crack ho and doesn't realize what day it is?

It's possible the mother has come forward, but without a pic of the kid it'll be harder to determine which missing child from Brooklyn she is.
The local PD in brooklyn may not have sent the missing child alert out further than their local area yet, teh ball may have been dropped, or she's been missing from Brooklyn longer than two weeks and the alert is listed as 'old' by now.

Maybe mommy's dead, and daddy knows what happened.

Thanks. Cute kid.

If her mother's not looking for her, she's better off with a new family.

They better be sure she means Brooklyn, NY... there is a Brooklyn Park right outside of Baltimore (to the south) and she just might be confused.

Poor little kid. Forget searching for the mother. Write off the father. This kid needs a brand new start with a family that will take care of her.

And from the pictures it looks like her hair has been done recently. I doubt dad did it. Someone, somewhere is going to come forward with info, even if it isn't mom.

I agree. Let's hope nobody recognizes her. She deserves better than that.

Ack, I hadn't thought of that. An even worse scenario. :-/

Poor little girl. I just can't imagine people being so evil and irresponsible with a little one.

If my guess is right, the father could have done much worse by her.

What's wrong with dropping off with a stranger? If we would only raise minimum wage noone would be strange anymore. This is Bushfault.

Sort of the opposite of an Amber Alert?

Heartbreaking. What a pretty little girl, too. I shudder to think what she's seen in her life. And what it's done to her.
