This is a branch-off of my post yesterday about the FBI's website of missing children and how they have only a small number of kids listed on there. I got some great comments on the post, including one from Votescam that mentioned the Polly Klaas foundation's website and their supposed Master List of missing Children.
The list is 15 pages long... maybe 150 kids listed total? HOW IN THE WORLD IS THIS THE MASTER LIST OF MISSING CHILDREN?

Who are these kids? Why are they on the list and 99.9% of missing kids are not?
One pro I can offer is that at least these kids went missing lately, unlike the FBI's list of kids, some of whom went missing in the 60's and 70's! Clearly listing kids who've gone missing recently will help more than listing kids who went missing 50 years ago.
I always use young kidnap victim Johnny Gosch as a test. He is still classified as a missing child, and you CAN IN FACT find him listed on the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children's Website. But he is not on the Polly Klaas website's "master list of missing children." Why?
