Why on earth didn’t the boy have his own key or know where to get one ?

The youngest Gina DeJesus was 14 at the time she was taken. Amanda Berry was 17 when abducted and Michelle Knight was 21. They where also overpowered by him physically.

My mother taught one of the girls several years before she was taken, second grade.

None of the girls in Ohio where taken from their back yards.

They where abducted on the street. The youngest was 14 when abducted the other two where 17 and 21. One of them knew their abductor as he was the father of one of her class mates. He was also a school bus driver.

His name was Ariel Castro. He is dead now. Good riddance.

After midnight ?

WOW.

How about waking up, literally 5 days a week and my single Mom’s gone to work until at least 7pm. Knowing that I will get a call around 4 or 5pm on 3 of those days that she’s not going to make it home tonight.

Food is in the fridge.

“Did you do your homework?”

“Of course I did.”(whatever)

Week after week, month after month, year after year.

From the age of 11 to 16.

As I said, free range is an understatement.

when I was five my parents left me locked out of the house when they left for a wedding that day they traveled in two separate cars and both parents thought the other one had me. I was locked out side for two hours siting in front of my house crying before a neighbor came and got me. my parents had not discovered what had happened till they got to the wedding and I was not there. they called that neighbor and had her look for me. according to how this lady is being treated my parents should of lost custody of me to the state.

Oh, I screwed up more than my share of stuff, but my sons have turned out pretty good. I thank my parents for passing along good examples of parenting that I could put to use on my boys. Thanks also to a couple of drill sergeants who got me sorted out better than any of my school teachers ever did.

If I was the neighbor I would have invited the kid to stay in my house

If I was the neighbor, I would NEVER have done that. Never in a million years!

Because I am an adult male in 2010's America.

busybody..... the boy was 11 and capable of looking after himself.

The busybodies kids will grow up to be worthless having not been allowed responsibility.

You got it, the boy at 11 was indeed capable to take care of himself, and the parents knew it and trusted him. Also it wasn't that they stayed away longer on purpose as they intended.

Busybodies like the neighbor really need to mind their own frigging business

“I fear you may not have. I know it is difficult to be a good parent but having four like I do has been quite an accomplishment for me. Other parents like yourself don’t always have that achievement. Sorry about that.....perhaps the grandkids might be better.”

Bless your heart. Are you that presumptuous, narcissistic and arrogant in real life or is it just a FR persona?

Hey I can only discuss what you provide and you stated that you let your kids run free and pretty much raise themselves. I didn’t say anything that you already said yourself.

“you stated that you let your kids run free and pretty much raise themselves.”

Either you are confusing me with someone else or are putting words in my mouth.

“True but it is a very believable story.”

Which part do you believe?

1. The part where she says she can’t talk to anyone because it may impact her job ...

2. The part where she says she is unemployed ....

3. The part where she says she is a county employee ...

4. The part where she says she is a state employee ....

When it comes to children you can never be too safe. I hope one day that you are a parent. Best job on Earth but hardest as well.

I am a parent.

Raised them right.

Both successful.

You and your wife have always been hand wringers here.

Always.

This comment by you...it's classic..."When it comes to children you can never be too safe."

That's so progressive...so liberal.

I could go on and on...but it's worthless with you....and your wife.

lol....yeah I am sure your children turned out right...doubt it. You seem to vicious and nasty to have nice kids unless they saw your behavior and said I sure as hell don’t want to be like Mom. Well good for you.
