I read the Elizabeth Smart book...and I feel the way the parents went about it was fine. Contacting the media and others is what brought Elizabeth home. She will have to live as "that girl" for the rest of her life...but through the caring her parents put into finding her, at least she will be "that girl" instead of "that dead girl." Her parents are very religious people...her whole family is...read the book if you want a better understanding of what truly happened...the media coverage and made for TV movie do not do any justice!
