Staff needs to go to jail

It sucks that this country even devolved into even having the market for day care facilities.

What a tragedy. Yes, somebody messed up badly. A toddler apparently wandered outside unsupervised.

That won’t bring her back. Every mother has to be prepared for this if she sends her child to daycare. Consider it before marrying someone who can’t provide for her to stay home with her kids or before having kids with a guy with whom she won’t marry
That’s all

So sad.

Hope the police do a very thorough investigation.

Story sounds a little too "convenient".

Why would they leave a well open when they have 2 year old's running around? My daughter worked at two daycare centers. Some don't have enough workers to safely supervise small children. They usually keep the kids in a fenced in play area when they go outside to play. It's a real shame that this family lost their precious child. I don't know how I would handle such a loss.

The only small blessing is that there wasn’t days or months of searching... or years of wondering.

We have an old well on our property that my grandfather hand dug 100 years ago. Our daughters played around it all the time when they were growing up. OTOH, I covered it with a concrete cover that I could barely lift 20 years ago and cannot lift at all now.

There was an open well on my neighbors property. I spoke to them about it.

They told me that it was my duty to keep my chidden on my property.

I told them that I could maybe do that but there were usually 3 to 6 other kids visiting to play and I could not guarantee their safety.

I then spoke with my local excavator to find out the cost of getting a concrete well cap put on their well, I would pay for it.

He must have spoken to my neighbors.

the next week the neighbors installed a wood well cap.

I have to look to see if it is still there. There are no children in the neighborhood yet but some young couples have moved in and there will be some soon.

[mware]

Open wells. WTH.

Do folks just dig a very deep hole in the ground then abandon it for some cute little girl to tumble into?
