abandoned by their parents. It didn't matter if it was a girl or a boy, any street child
could be a Lost Boy. These children were rescued by Peter Pan and taken to
Neverland, thus they could forget the pains of abandonment and return to living life as
games. The Lost Boys were everything in Peter Pan's life.
