Parents charged…

[username]

I think the parents were over-charged. On one hand I wouldn’t allow my seven year old out of the front yard, but that’s just me. On the other I used to walk to the corner store across a busy street when I was seven years old. Not only that, but with a note from my mother to allow me to buy her cigarettes and a six pack of beer.

I hate slippery slopes but this sounds like one (absent other details). I mean if ur kid is kidnapped waiting at a school bus stop are u negligent because u weren’t there with them waiting for the bus? 

I don’t like it.
