Oh I’ve already called it for Mommy’s boyfriend. Every 3 year old have ever met is afraid of the dark so really doubt she got up and just got in her Pink Barbie car and drove off.
After reading the article, I tend to agree with you. Said the boyfriend said he checked on her, so he was the last one to acknowledge seeing her. Sounds like the tot had a bit of a disability, maybe could not really run off quickly, had she gotten away on her own.
It’s just that I see our tiny 15-month granddaughter stretching up and trying to open doors already, and recall the 2-year old grandson, in September, actually getting out of the house on his own... so it seems to be within the realm of possibility that a 3-year old could get outside on her own.
