Answer
Georgia law prohibits a law enforcement agency from establishing a waiting period for a missing person's report pertaining to a minor, the report should be made to the local police immediately. The parents should be prepared to give the names of relatives, the teen's friends, place of employment (if any) and so forth. The parents should also have available a recent photograph and if possible a description of what the person was wearing when last seen. In all likelihood when found the teen will be taken into custody and held in juvenile facility until a court hearing, at which time if there are not mitigating circumstances the minor will be returned to the parent(s) custody.
