BusyMommy : Are you talking about them leaving the children in bed while they went to eat? I did think about that, and all in all...bad decision on their part in hindsight, but to be fair, the restaurant was about 100 yards away, I think they said. I could see a whole lot of parents making that decision to go eat with friends with the apartment still in sight and check on them from time to time. 100 yards could be one end of a house to another. It was a bad decision, but nothing I saw as gross negligence, to be honest.
@nikkiole :
Umm not 100 yards away in place not your house is ok? How so?
