2. Why was he taken off the Missing Child lists? Why did it take so long to find Tanner?

A person of color perhaps? I really hate thinking that...

I'm really grateful the boy was found, and it sounds as though he's had a terrible time with Tanner, but this ain't gonna be easy for this mom and this boy. Sounds like he hasn't even been in school yet. My deepest hopes and dreams for them to have a life of joy and happiness however going forward!
