[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The guy who called said they were wandering around alone for 20 mins...so they weren't at the park. And they were meandering, not walking straight home. And they approached a strange man and asked to pet his dog...that's breaking the cardinal rule of not talking to strangers. These kids aren't equipped to be off on their own. This 911 call should be a wake up call for the parents. [/quote] They weren't supposed to stay at the park. They were supposed to walk home from the park. In order to walk home from the park, they have to leave the park and start walking -- which is actually what they were doing. As for walking straight home -- do you know that the parents told them to walk straight home? The parents gave them over an hour to walk less than a mile, so I'm guessing that the parents didn't. What's more, "Don't talk to strangers" is an outdated, misleading, and harmful rule. http://www.missingkids.com/en_US/publications/PDF10A.pdf[/quote]
