Does any one else have a problem with a mother who routinely has homeless men come into her home in some sort of act of charity, and a father who last night chastised the leadership in Congress for not acting quickly enough on Meghan's Law legislation?

Although the legislation makes sense...none of this would have happened if Mrs. Smart had been more concerned with the welfare of her children and a little less concerned with taking care of vagrants.

Sorry....Amber Alert....not Meghan's law...duh

There is some serious weirdness that has yet to surface in this case. The next few weeks should prove interesting.

HOW DARE YOU. You cannot put your life exerpieces into someone else. Some religious people feel it is their duty to help others and see it as a lesson they are teaching their children. You don't know this mother. I can't believe there are people on this board who are so self-righteous as to chastise a women who's only crime was trying to help people who were not as fortunate as she. Unbelievable.

re: a mother who routinely has homeless men come into her home in some sort of act of charity)))

Is this indeed the assertion? Is it now bad mother-hood to hire handymen, plumbers, electricians, landscapers....? The incident has indeed made me think twice about who I hire, and another reason to do things myself, but we are not allowed police or mental health dossiers on the past lives of every kind of household help.
