[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm just shocked that anyone would leave a rising third and fourth grader alone at a vacation home. Zero familiar neighbors to look out for them or help in case of emergency. Surrounded by strangers. All I can think of is Madeleine McCann.

Seriously, who does this?!?![/quote]

I never did this.  But it's possible that she underestimated the time that she would be gone.  Maybe she was thinking 20 minutes tops.  But it turned out to be closer to an hour.

When she wound up being gone longer than expected and the dogs begged to go out, maybe the kids (who were likely used to walking the dogs at their own house) put the dogs on their leashes and took them out for a walk.

I'm not familiar with Rehobeth streets.  Is the street that they were on a main drag or was this a[b] residential beach neighborhood str[/b]eet?

Residential.

I'm really glad I didn't get arrested this summer - I'm sure I left my 11 year old in our beach rental alone while I took my 8 year old to Funland. Of course, I leave both of them home alone regularly (the 11 year old more than the 8 year old, but even still, he has been by himself several times). I still don't see how this warrants an arrest, unless something way bigger than what has been reported was going on.[/quote]
