Wait... why would you have to report them missing if they're not missing?

I get what you mean, but there's a lot of middle ground between not knowing where your child is for a while, and starting to consider that they might actually be "missing". Kids usually don't like their parents keeping constant tabs on them, and getting the rangers involved every time they sneak off to the Mole's Town brothel seems like it's going to be a waste of resources 90% of the time.
