Poor kid.. I don't know what is going on, no one really does yet, the balloon has landed... he isn't in it... I have been watching it all afternoon... It at one point at 5500 ft in the air.. Thank god he wasn't found in the balloon because it was full of hellium which would have I believe killed him, as hellium deprives your brain of oxygen.... not good... Anyway.. I am hoping and praying that he was never in the balloon , I am hoping he untethered the balloon and ran off scared... that he would be in trouble.. please keep this family and this curious little boy in your prayers...

[Kathryn]

wow...that's crazy

[Meredith]

I think he's turning out that he was never in it. My mom's been following but they said they found him at home. My mom's guess is that he accidentally set it up, was afraid of getting in trouble and hid all day somewhere...

crazy though. that would scare this shit out of me!

[Katie]

Yeah I think they said he was hiding somewhere cuz he was scared, I was praying that is what had happened... I am just glad he is ok.

My question is.. WHERE THE FREAK where his parents while he was filling a hellium balloon that size by himself outside and letting it out, and then hiding becuase he was sooo scared?

[Erin]

I've heard that he was found in a box in the attic of the garage.

And I believe the balloon was already filled, he just untethered it. There was a basket attached that fell off at one point.

[Katie]

Any body watch it on good morning america this morning???? Something is fishy with all this, and this family... I hate to point fingers and make accusations, but those boys look like they are seriously afraid of their dad, and I don't know if you guys have been around abused kids but watch their behaviors and their manurisms.... somethings NOT right....

[Jamie]

there's rumor going around that they staged it all for attention.

[Katie]

Yeah well like I said before there is alot more than all that going on... After watching him on several shows this morning, and his vomitting from being so nervous, and his fathers reaction and his brothers reaction and his mom's not even getting up to freakin check on him until after someone told her to and even then her hesitating to do so... I am telling you.. Something is not right... Even the brothers looked more worried about Falcon than the parents.. Those boys look like they are under an awful lot of diress and like there is an awful lot going on in that home...

[Jamie]

agreed.
they were also featured on an episode of wife swap a couple of seasons ago...little weird.

[Katie]

yeah.

[Erin]

anyone who has been on wifeswap is weird in my book.

[KristiMarie]

well the dad is a meterologist... which could explain the baloon and how the kid had easy access to it...

[Katie]

That part has been explained what isn't explained is the behavior of the kids while they are on tv, and why they look scared shitless....

[Kristi Rae]

all of them behave so oddly!!! for those of you who are moms wouldnt u still b a bit upset about this if it had happened to you? i know he was found safe but dont you think they would say how happy they were when they found Falcon in the house? doesnt seem like normal behavior of parents if you ask me.

all a show...the balloon wouldnt even lift off if the boy had been in it they are trying to get the kids and wife out of the house in case he was abusive but there is no evidence so the authorities have no power...sad story
