[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if you turned it around and a story came out that two kids had been living alone, scavenging for a few weeks in silver spring? And when the story broke, everyone said to themselves, yeah, I saw those kids, and something looked off, but I have been taught to mind my own business... That's a little bit playing devils advocate, but that's why I do think the dogwalker was justified. As someone said above, a mom talking to them instead of calling 911 would have been a much easier decision, but a single guy, meh he did ok. The first case should have been thrown out, and the officers reminded of the rights of children to walk in public, such that when a call came in, the officer could have investigated, perhaps assisted them home to verify they had one, and everyone moved on![/quote] Seriously! People are stupid. FWIW, if anyone sees my two girls out by themselves and thinks they look to little to be out alone, please call me if you know me. And if you don't know me and they forget their phone number, please call the police. Or even if you think I'm sketchy, call the police. I'll deal with it. I would much rather have that inconvenience and embarrassment than have my kids be in an unsafe situation because everyone's trained not to care about each other and MYOB.[/quote] YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS JESUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS And I say this as a parent who lets her kids be "free range"[/quote]
