KIDS as young as 14 are going missing for days at a time as part of a worrying new Facebook game called the "48-hour challenge".
The shocking challenge invites children to hide from their parents and loved ones for as long as possible, with participants awarded a higher score every time they are mentioned on social media.
This means that kids are given points if their frantic parents take to Facebook or Twitter to sound the alarm.
The latest "challenge" is very similar to the "Game of 72" which shocked the nation in 2015 by tellings kids to disappear for 24, 48 or even 72 hours.

The computer age is quite dangerous.
Young people should be protected from it for as long as possible.
