TheCatWhisperer says: Ok, I don't know where to start here... For one thing this bastard deserves to be castrated. However, what the fuck was an 11 year old girl doing walking home at 1 AM??? The parents shouldbe charged as accomplices in the crime IMO. It was thier incompitence as parents that let this happen. It makes me want to scream. Its easy enough for these creeps as it is.. you serve your 11 year old on a silver platter? you deserve to be shot. That's just my opinion though. Hmm, seems that the parents have totally failed this little girl, not only was she out and alone at an inappropriate time for an 11 year old, did the parents not ever tell her not to accept lifts from strangers... imo, social services need to pay the parents a visit to ascertain whether this was an isolated incident or whether this girl is more routinely put at risk. Comments were based on the information given , and of course there may be more to this story. It was thier incompitence as parents that let this happen.I agree. I didn't see anything in the story that said the parents knew or gave permission for their daughter to be out on the streets that late. I think more information is needed.

Fuck, when I was 8 I had a curfew of 7pm & was in bed at 8pm. And I most certainly wasn't alowed to walk anywhere on the streets ALONE at 11 years old. The parents failed miserably on many levels here. If my daughter is at a friend's house, then i have an understanding with that friend's parents that they know where my daughter is and if she w... When I was about that age, I was staying at a friend's house, everyone was asleep and we got a crazy idea to go to the gas station for some cokes, which we all knew we were not supposed to do. So two of us snuck out and went to the gas station and got some cokes, it was about 3am. In this case I wouldn't place any blame on the parents I was staying with, or my own parents. I simply did what kids do from time to time, things they are not supposed to. But if the parents KNEW I was walking home, or told me to, or never told me not to, I agree with you Cat. There's awlays the idea that "kids will be kids". This though sounded like poor parenting and sounded like the freind parents failed as well. It wasn't her sneaking out to go get cokes, she simply went home at 1 am. It just seems like such a failure on so many levels it astounds me. As a soon to be father it scares the shit out of me. There is a little more detail here, but no answer as to exactly why she was out... http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/story/4094362p-4692550c.html Winnipeg Free Press It wasn't her sneaking out to go get cokes, she simply went home at 1 am.But did she do so with the knowledge of her parents? Did her parents even know she was at the friends house? As a soon to be father it scares the shit out of me.As a father of a 12 year old daughter, I will tell you something that will scare you even more. By that age, they know how to lie, operate locks, turn doorknobs, and even open windows. Fortunately, mine doesn't know how to turn off the voice to the alarm system that sounds off when you disarm it or open a door. But that doesn't do much good if she is spending the night at a friends house and decides to walk home without calling first. I think the fact that the girl accepted a ride from a stranger tends to subscribe greatly to the idea that the parenting in this case "may" have been lacking.. I am sure all of you, as i did with my children, warned them time and time again about the dangers of accepting rides. But as we all know at times children just do not think..... m sorry N2, I just can't elive that the parents in this case were not to blame. from the other article that was linked, it just seems like this is just some poor kids who lives in a bad neighborhood & likly has bad parents. I just can't let the paretns out of this, unless it comes out that the parents thought she was supposed to stay at her friends palce and the friends parents didn't know & though she was safe & asleep (it was 1am...) them MAYBE. IMO, parents are responsible for thier kids well being, regardless of how devius the kid is. I applaud you for doing everything you can to keep your daughter safe, and the first thing I thpugh of when i thoughabout how to prevent them from snea... What a sad state of affairs we keep nowadays |
