Current Connection

Mother cited when her kids where left home alone. This article is in the newspaper.

 

The connection I am making wtih this article is people not taking care of their own children. Which is pathetic becasue if you can't take care of your own children DON'T HAVE KIDS!!!

A couple days ago, two children got off a school bus to their home, which no parents were home. The children refused to get back on the bus, so the bus driver called the police. The Batesville School Resource Officer, Cord Davidson ovserved the house, it was very dirty, it stunk of trash and was full of flies. In a different room by a bed, was a loaded 12 gauge shotgun. Then in an ashtray there were stems, burned paper, and a couple seeds from Marjuana. The mother came home with a friend and a four year old girl who was not in a car seat. The family was put under a protective services case, and the mother was cited for endangering the welfare of a minor, and the friend was cited for driving a vehicle with a child passenger and no car seat. Do you wonder what the parents think? What if they were home when the children got off the bus? What do you think the cop thinks of the family now? Do they really feel bad for those kids? If I was a mother right now my house would NEVER smell like trash, WOULDN’T have flies in my house, WOULDN’T have a shotgun in my house with babies in the house too. WOULDN’T have any type of drugs in my house. And I would make sure that I am home when my children got home from school. I don’t understand how someone can let a six year old and a seven year old live in that type of enviornment. I’m just glad DHS is involved. Now people will hopefully understand; if you cant even take care of yourself, DO NOT HAVE KIDS!
