[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the PP who said I wasn't sure if I'd intervene. They're in their mid 40s with a 2 and 3 yr old; they had kids pretty close together likely cause that window was closing. Now they're stuck with 2 needy toddlers after having been DiNKS for 2 decades. I'm sure they were sick of the story time, bath time, act like everything your kid does is utterly fascinating routine and just needed a few hrs away. I bet they booked a sitter who cancelled last second, didn't have anyone who could step in and said f--- it, we're going anyway. How do we make it happen? And this is the plan they devised. Stupid as it was, I still don't see it as any of my business or the business of the state dept atty who watched the car for 20 min. I honestly don't see caring enough about someone else's toddlers who are secured in a car -- cold is not going to harm them for 2-3 hrs -- but obviously that's just me.[/quote] How do we make it happen?? When 'it' is a wine tasting?? FFS. And I'm grateful that the state dept. attorney clearly did think it was his business as opposed to someone like you. You don't care enough about a two and three year old? Wow.[/quote] I guess I am heartless, but for a victimless crime like this, I'd move on with my day; I wouldn't sit there and watch the car, I'd assume the parents were someplace nearby and coming back. And frankly who wants to be involved here -- now you have to talk to cops, testify at trial if there is one or talk to investigators even if there is no trial. Not my problem I say. Yes -- it is victimless - kids are TWO and THREE; they'll forget it in a few days if they haven't already. It's not like they are older kids who'll remember and re-live this kind of thing.[/quote] unless they developed hypothermia and had to have toes amputated... or got kidnapped and trafficed... or the car got broken into for the iphone and a shard of glass hit one in the leg or face or eye... [/quote] Or if the poor hysterical one got so worked up she threw up and started choking. Child neglect is not a victim-less crime. Are you getting off on posting these stupid comments? What is in if for you to keep coming back and posting your clear minority opinion? No one is jumping on your idiot bandwagon. You say you don't care enough about these kids to have intervened had you seen them but yet you seem to care enough about this thread to keep posting. [/quote]
