Negligent parents.

The mother of that 3 y/o boy better be making plans to move on the other side of town. Their remaining neighbors will be pretty upset at what her son did. True, 3 y/o get into things, but usually nothing even close to this tragedy.

"...negligent parents..."

negligent parent.

[BykrBayb]

Criminally negligent parents.

It is likely very challenging for one adult to manage a half-dozen toddlers in any given situation.

Why I will never live in an apartment anymore. They are tinderboxes for the irresponsible.

Something very similar to this fire happened last year in London, England.
Remember the London Grenfell Tower Fire of June 28, 2017?
In that instance, over 80 people died.
Most the occupants were new immigrants and low income people.

According to the article, she had a 2-year-old and the 3-year-old, not a half dozen.

[Hyman Roth]

We need stove control.

"...she had a 2-year-old and the 3-year-old, not a half-dozen..."

Sigh. More kids than could be adequately managed.

[Slingwing]

Charge the mother with neglect homicide or involuntary manslaughter.

[mewzilla]

Played with burners. Flames got out of control.

Okaaaaaay. Needs a bit more explanation than THAT.

A Soldier is missing in that fire.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

3 year old? In reality an unmanageable feral whelp, a “teen” with training wheels.

Don't forget the Chicago Tribune report that Mrs. O'Leary failed to guard a lantern while milking her cow in Chicago... at least until the Chicago Tribune reporter Michael Ahern admitted it was just FakeNews.

I couldn’t imagine dealing with bugs from sloppy neighbors; here in NJ we have a phenomenon where any multi-family that rents to Indians quickly becomes Indian-only; they refuse to use pesticides for religious reasons, so nothing you do in your own space protects you. I believe “Infested” had an episode where a Canadian woman had that problem in her apartment; one tenant in the whole building refused to bomb on religious grounds. Disgusting...

[fwdude]

The Indian tenants also tend to emit “interesting” cooking odors into surrounding apartments as well.

wait for it............he was cold, the family can’t afford heat because of the evil rich republicans & Donald Trump
