[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think there's anything wrong with the general idea leaving an 8 and 9 year old alone in the house for a brief time while you go to get food. However, it sounds like in this situation it somehow resulted in the 8 and 9 year old running around after the family dogs in the street, which leads to me to question whether these particular kids were mature enough to handle it. I don't agree with criminal charges against the mother, but it does seem like maybe these particular kids were not ready for it. [/quote] It could have been something as simple as the kids letting the dogs out into the yard, the gate not being latched properly and the dogs seeing a squirrel or a cat - and off they went. The kids saw the dogs take off and being the responsible kids that they were, they ran after their dogs to get them back inside the house. That would fall under "stuff happens".[/quote]
