She's 55. Dad might be dead. Or 5 years into 30 year old Wife #2. Or he's 59 and afraid to take vacation because the staff in his office are irresponsible. Or she's a single mom by choice who can afford a week-long beach rental --and with two ES age kids and two dogs, she deserves 45 min alone.[/quote]

So what she can afford to vacation alone? What does that have to do with how much sense she has? Clearly not much - she left her two young children home alone in a vacation rental.  What if Laquisha (in the projects) or Brandy (in a trailer park) had done this? Does your opinion change?

This was STUPID no matter who did it.  Kids are 24/7. Not just when you feel like it. She should have gotten that 45 minutes through a babysitter or when they went to bed.[/quote]

8/9 year old kids generally do not need to be watched like hawks.  And it actually doesn't sound as if they were doing anything wrong.  Their dogs got out and they chased them to try to get them back while Mom was down the street picking up dinner.

I don't think that we know enough about the circumstances - how the dogs got out, the maturity of the kids, if the kids were left inside the house or if they were running around outside, where the mom went and how long she expected to be gone - to really know if this was particularly careless on this mother's part or not.[/quote]
