[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. She says that she called after him, but he didn't respond. My husband talked to her. She never really shows any emotion so I don't know if she really understands how serious this war and is just her usual unemotional self or if it freaked her out too. She was standing there looking to see if he was going to reach us, she was probably concerned but not actually moving toward him (she has a bad knee but can certainly walk - she's not immobile!) and not doing what I would consider reasonable which is at least yelling and waving arms and trying to get help or our attention.

Husband agrees that we shouldn't have her supervise again except at home. I am not completely sure about whether I even want her doing that. She seems to not be very observant. She was keeping an eye on the kids while I had a shower yesterday and when I came out my youngest was coloring with his coloring book directly on the sofa and every time his marker slipped off the page he'd drawn on the sofa. She was sitting right next to him and oblivious of the mess he was making. Not dangerous, of course but it makes me think there's a pattern.[/quote]

She is not a capable caretaker, even for a few minutes, sadly. Sorry, OP![/quote]
