good for you, Dustin - I hope my grandkids (if I ever get any!!!) learn the same way. The blame does lie solely with the parents - they weren't watching the kids when the kids were watching TV - and they didn't bother to see what their 8-year-old put in his backpack. An 8-year-old isn't ready for the kind of responsibility to take complete care of himself. I count making sure the backpack and lunch is ready for school the next day as taking care. Somebunny wasn't doing their job.

Course I heard today that the dad was charged with unlawful possesion of a firearm and felony child endangerment - the possesion of a firearm got his probation revoked. And the mom was just charged with felony child endangerment. They lost their kid(s) and will have to petition the court to get them back. I just hope they're more watchful then. Prolly not, though - they are prolly the same ones that think they're blameless.

If it were me I wouldn't allow them their children back, that was a stupid and irresponsible thing to do and they don't deserve to raise kids. I understand making a mistake that could hurt yourself, but that is an innnocent child and deserves much better than that.

We got so many folks raisin kids that "don't deserve" to be raisin lab mice. Truth is there is no place for these kids to go - the other truth is these kids love thier folks. It's important to try to keep families together - looks like CPS is doin that. Now if they can just do the monitoring of how this family does. Not likely but then that's the flaw in the system. Too bad.

I all these cases the real losers are the kids. They love their parents no matter what because that is their way of life and they don't know any different. Now they are put into the foster care system and chances are they won't be treated any better there but this time they're mistreated by strangers. I feel bad for these poor innocent kids,
