I think parents for the most part know their kids and what boundaries they need to set for them and when they can give them their space. I really don't think it does society or these kids any good to have busy bodies second-guessing the judgment of parents.

Clearly the kids were not in peril. The 911 operator who answered the call should have told the guy to call the local police department and to keep the line clear for real emergencies.

If given an opportunity to think this through I don't think anyone, including the guy who made the call, believes that these kids are safer or better off with CPS than with their parents.

Also, I wonder if the guy had known what was to come next - highly irresponsible actions on the part of the police and CPS to basically kidnap these kids - he would have actually made the call.

I hope the parents lawyer up and sue the county for unlawful imprisonment.

So we should all just look the other way if we think someone might need help? Fear of being wrong about whether or not they actually need our help should keep everyone's eye diverted.

This guy probably thought pretty hard about what to do. He said he'd been watching them for 20 min already before finally calling for help or assistance on how to best proceed.

If something had happened to these children, don't you think it would weigh heavier on him that he stood back and did nothing? I'd take making someone upset if I felt I was genuinely doing the best I knew to do regarding someone's safety, especially a child. That's much better that regret.

Wow that guy should be arrested. Why is he taking so much interest in kids? Very abby normal.

How sad that your take away from all of this is that the guy is somehow a perv or something. He couldn't possibly have been concerned about them so he was hanging out to make sure they were okay.....then called police when he realized they were unsupervised. Yup, anyone who is concerned and watching out for the kids should definitely be arrested!! [/quote]
That guy is a creep and should be arrested. If you have kids CPS needs to paid you a visit. You are an unfit parent.[/quote]
