Could be just the screen was closed on the slider...They slide easily...
we have 5 kids with 4 at home including 3 boys under 9
the 22 month old wandered out into the garage while the 6 year old was watching TV in the den with him and mom and i were in the kitchen.....6 year old failed to say anything
next thing via phone call we knew he was next door at their back porch glass door at dusk, 35 yards away
we were humiliated...they are childless, both lawyers but very sweet....
we ran over and grabbed him and got them a bottle of Paradux Meritage in kind
first time that ever happened i can recall with all these kids....some are wanderers and climbers
i was about that age when I climbed to the top of this home in Mississippi...our ancestral homeplace.....the roofers grabbed me up, i had climbed the scaffolding 3 stories above a brick driveway

We have coyotes too...beaucoup...i don't let my little kids out at night in the back without me if i can help it
sometimes God is watching...no doubt in my mind about that
