OK...I'm admitting today I watched Oprah,if you can you should. Its about the young man that was found this weekend after being abducted four years ago. This young man Shawn Hornbeck is an amazing young man,wow what hes been through and what his family went through. Really worth the watch... :)

how was the boy kept captive for that long? did he tie him up or lock him in a room for 4 whole years? Why didn't or why couldn't the boy escape?

They're really allowing these two boys take thier own time and tell the story.No one wants to pressure them. What got to me was that the boy Shawn said he knew his parents would find him,he never gave up hope. WOW :!: Also the police were at the apartment building looking for another guy,seen the white truck,got the FBI called...the rest is history...so heartwrenching.

I too took the time to watch Oprah today...personally I was a tad bit surprised that the parents of Shawn would allow him to be interviewed by her so soon. I thougt the other parents of Ben did the right thing and not allow him on t.v. Yes we all want to know why...and I spose in time we'll hear about it...but those boys need time to sort it all out and if they can't even tell their parents what makes Oprah or the media think they'll tell us??? I just hope they will be able to work through it ok...

Ohhh I totally agree with you...I would never have allowed my child to be interviewed,but I was so impressed with this young man who's been to heck and back...actually I thought Oprah tried stepping over the line once too many times,but other then that,it was Shawn I was taken to.
