MONUMENT, COLO. -- Catalyzed by an appearance on the talk show "Dr. Phil," the Facebook page dedicated to helping find missing Dylan Redwine has surpassed 20,000 likes.

Both Dylan's mother and father, along with his older brother Cory, appeared on the nationally syndicated "Dr. Phil Show" earlier this week.

On the show, Dylan's mom Elaine said she believes Dylan's dad Mark had something to do with his disappearance. Mark said those claims were unsubstaniated and backfired saying he had a strong believe his wife was involved.

Mark ultimately did not take a life detector test offered by the show.

"I know that you have seen Dr. Phil by now," read the page. "I thank you for watching. It wasn't pretty but it never is when children are missing. But we have made ground and that is all that matters. No matter what you believe please keep believing in dylan. Thank you all and let's all stay hopeful in finding dylan. Love Elaine."

Dylan has been missing for three months, since Nov. 19, 2012, his mother Elaine said in a January interview with FOX21 News. That was a day after arriving at his father's Vallecito home for Thanksgiving break.

The Facebook page went up immediately after Dylan disappeared. Since then, the search for Dylan has grown to have an almost viral-like presence on the social media site with thousands interacting on the page.

On the page, information about other missing children throughout Colorado and the United States is also shared, creating a hub for people to help bring the missing home.

In the last week alone, the page grew by nearly 10,000 likes.

The video attached to this story was made by a friend of Dylan's, according to the page.

Administrators on the page ask those who like the page to share the Missing Dylan Redwine poster to their social media friends.
