The families of the three American hikers apparently detained by Iranian authorities after mistakenly crossing the unmarked border from Iraqi Kurdistan into Iran have put out a statement calling for the hikers' release.
The three Americans – Shane Bauer, Sarah Shourd and Josh Fattal – have now been missing for 12 days.
"As loving parents, nothing causes us more heartache than not knowing how our children are, and not being able to talk to them and learn when we will hold them in our arms again," the families write in the statement.
This wouldn't happen if kids were taught compassion and a little common sense by their parents.
