How many little children are murdered by parents who leave them in hot cars for hours -- and no one gets arrested?
This is NOT a criminal offense. Kids get sunburned at fairs - it happens all the time.

For a sunburn. Give me a break. But....
He noted that Ms. Hibbits had already spent a week in jail, that probation might be appropriate and that the government agency charged with protecting children might play a role.
Maybe this women has neglected her kids in the past. It's not to hard to lather your kids with sunscreen before you send them out for the day. But now we will arrest the stupid? Half of congress would be gone.

People are so stupid these days. Our kids don't get sunburns, and we're not rocket scientists!
Surely Ms. whatever was a Gore voter.
To: kattracks
I don't know about the jailing, but from what I read, you don't want sun-burns on your children before 11. Something about uping their chances of skin cancer later 1000%.
Nothing to consider minor either!!!

When I was a kid in the 50s we vacationed in Nagshead and or Cape Hatteras, and almost every year I would burn and blister, year after year. But I look back on those times as some of the happyist. So even though my parents have departed for a better place, can I sue somebody? Perhaps the State of North Carolinia for not protecting me?

It would be nice to have a few more facts. I don't think that the gubmint should be in the business of policing sunburns. I had a few beauts of sunburns when I was a kid, I don't attribute the cause to my mother's inattention. We didn't have access to sunblock back then. This is nannyism at its worst.

Eastern Ohio, huh? Anywhere near Traficant's (former) congressional district?

The thought/action police are out again. This women will learn her lesson = three little kids crying all night from sunburn. She'll be paying for a few days for that one and hopefully will be more careful next time.

Hey, this is nothing. My mother and father got life in prison because I once got a cavity.
