You do not make threats that you are unwilling to carry out. I’m on the mom’s side here.

Okay, I’ve done this. However I was parked in front of my husband’s place of business and he was preparing to leave, so they had to ride with him.

They’ve been pretty dang good ever since.

Isn’t it horribly ironic that liberals can’t see this kind of situation for what it is?

Who should the legal authorities be concerned about here? The girls, right?

So why are they traumatizing the girls by preventing them from being in contact with their mother?

Yes, Mom snapped and did something very stupid and dangerous, and yes it probably traumatized the girls to a certain degree.

But here comes the government, forcibly seperating the mother from her children.

That will make it all better, won’t it? Morons.

How did she endanger them? She didn’t leave the in the desert with no water. And they aren’t 5 and 6 year old.

She left her children on the side of the road like they were garbage and drove away. It is one thing to punish your children, and quite another to leave them three miles from home with no apparent way to go home. Obviously the older child abandoned the 10 year old too - leaving her alone on city streets.

Empty threats have no place in parenting. I’ll bet the kids take her seriously next time!

“the 12-year-old eventually caught up with the mother”

Anybody click the article and notice that part?
Sounds to me like she probably made them get out, then drove up the road.

Ho-hum.

Wow, my parents would be in jail 80 times based on these sissy standards.

I admit it, I have also gotten mad at my children for fussing and put them out of the truck, also about 3 miles from home. The difference? I made them walk (a short bit of the way) as I followed right behind them. They dont squabble in the truck anymore.

I’m just glad the mother was trying to discipline her children. Seems like other parents have forgotten that’s part of their duties and let the kids go wild.
