Who reports an amber alert?

I was at the mall one time and i went to see a movie and i forgot to call my mom and she thought that some one grabbed me so she ALMOST sent out an amber alert. So the answer is that if the mom or dad or someone is positive that their child is missing they call the police and the police look around for the missing person then if they cant find you in a few hours then they call some one and that someone calls someone else then the amber alert goes on the news myspace the radio and the newspaper and anything else you can think of. Hopefully the missing person gets found. An amber alert is a serious thing and its not rite to take other peoples children. So if you are a kidnapper or just somone that wants to know the answer to that question you need to remember that it is totally totally horrible to grab a child or anyone. Thank you
