A:
Sounds like your daughter did not call you. That is strange.
You know all your information through hearsay.
Why are you waiting around if youo are ACTUALLY concerned that your daughter is facing or suffering from physical harm.
It is now 14 days later.
You have the right to contact authorities including the child abuse hotline
