She sure is a young mom. I wonder if she has an older boyfriend. Maybe she's with him. Hoping they're both safe.

Good grief, found ABC 7 Chicago's FB post on her and her son. The comments are unbelievable. Not productive, but yikes.

I really wish they would stop posting news like this on FB. It just allows for people to insult others and rumors to start. We have contacted our local news and asked them to stop. They don't care. Many of our missing teens her age our runaways. Hoping she is as well.

My Mom was born and raised in the Garfield Ridge neighborhood not too far from there. So much has changed in those neighborhoods changed even since my grandma last lived in her home there in the late 90's early 00's.

And I agree in hoping she is a runaway trying to do something for her and her son that she must have felt she couldn't do at home. One thing I will note though, and I don't know if this is an error or fact, but the articles all say her little boy is 2 and 50lbs. He doesn't looks 50lbs in the picture. I'd like to know if that is accurate information.
