December 20, 2018I don’t mean to laugh. There’s nothing all that funny about the situation… but for some reason it still sort of made me snort.
It’s all so ironic, (don’t you think?)
A Muncie, Indiana (Home of Ball State) mom has been arrested after leaving her two young children home alone…watching Home Alone.
According to Fox 59 Indianapolis:
Police in Muncie say they found a 7-year-old boy and his 4-year-old brother watching “Home Alone” while their mother was away at work.
Muncie police say the boys’ mom said she couldn’t find a sitter so she told the older son to stay home from school with the younger sibling Tuesday. The Star Press reports that she was arrested on a charge of neglect of a dependent.
See what I mean?
It sorta-kinda makes you laugh.
It also makes me wonder – at what age can kids stay alone? Sure, 7 and 4 seems young. But I used to stay and watch my 7-year-old brother when I was 11 if my parents had a quick errand to run or something. Never more than an hour or two, I don’t think.
I was taking full babysitting jobs at 13.
Every kid is different. I, for instance, stopped GROWING when I was 9. I basically looked the same plus stupid hair. Some 9-year-olds I see look like ACTUAL BABIES.
