At 7 years old, Bonnie Lohman saw her own face on a milk carton. She had no idea she was the missing child. Bonnie had been taken away from her biological father years earlier by her mother and stepfather, moving from place to place before eventually settling in Colorado. Then came one ordinary trip to the grocery store. Her stepfather pointed to a milk carton with Bonnie’s photograph on it and told her she was famous. Bonnie couldn’t yet understand the words printed above her picture: MISSING CHILD. Her stepfather knew exactly what they meant. He still bought the carton. After the milk was gone, Bonnie cut out her photograph and tucked it inside her Barbie case like a strange little souvenir. That tiny clipping would eventually expose everything. Bonnie accidentally left the case at a neighbor’s house. Someone found the photograph, realized what they were looking at, and contacted authorities. Police soon arrived. After years of searching, Bonnie’s biological father finally got his daughter back. But the ending wasn’t the movie reunion people might expect. Bonnie later said she was terrified. She didn’t recognize her father. To her, the people authorities were taking her away from were the only family she really remembered. One of the most haunting parts of the missing-child milk carton era is that sometimes the child staring back from the carton had no idea they were missing at all.
