Kids escape all the time. At that age, they don't know not to play in the street. This is exactly what community does, watch out for each other. I found a little girl who had escaped her house. I walked her back to her home, across the street, and two short streets to her home. She knew where she lived. Her father didn't know she had gotten out. Another time, I left work early and my youngest had just run across my street to follow his brother who was delivering papers. Big brother didnt know about the escape. I got there just in time. A car in front of me stopped also.
They really do. People like to think it's something new with bad parents, but it's not new. It doesn't only happen to bad parents. Kids are quick, and one will often follow right behind the other.
@@atatterson6992happened to my niece bc maintenance wouldn’t fix her front door and it wouldn’t stay latched. Her daughter was in her bedroom and she was in the attached bathroom, she washed her hands/turned her back to her bedroom and went she went in the bedroom her daughter was no where to be found. She ran out fight behind her and got her before she was really outside. Then a neighbor called social services on her. So they came out and made maintenance fix the door and fined the apartment building owners. It happens. It doesn’t matter what you think. Parents have to do things around the house and they have to sleep. My step daughter was like Houdini, had a top latch so she couldn’t reach to get out and somehow made it outside without unlatching it. Also got in the fish tank when her mom was going to the bathroom. Put a jar of peanut butter in her hair overnight while her mom was sleeping and painted her room with it. My kids it was always permanent markers and the walls or their skin. Or cutting their own hair, despite me keeping the scissors on top of the fridge.
Sometimes, the parents don't even care. One of my old neighbors, who was putting groceries away from her car, left the door wide open. One kid walked out and went on a neighborhood walk. The girl was about 3. I followed her back home closely and the mother didnt seem to care that she escaped the house and went on a stroll. She didnt even acknowledge me when i brought her back and mentioned how dangerous the situation was. She literally just shrugged it off.
There actually are locks that are child proof. Even if a child reaches the lock, they physically can not open the door. Simple installation. No excuse for this.
@@AFloridaSon I want to go off on you but I'm not sure you're wrong. I probably need to lay off the RU-vid comments for a while and make sure my house is in order.
@@intheshell35ify You know, the more I think about it, I didn't exactly approach that with positivity. It's probably time for me to take a break from RU-vid, myself.
Great Job concerned citizen!!! Lol sorry but you know the person who took her call braced themselves for a mean Karen call. I know from years of being in customer service jobs. You get people who call to complain for both actual bad situations and an angry Karen because the customer ahead of her took the last blueberry muffin. And that’s some how the company’s fault. So the glowing calls really stand out. And the representative was pleasantly surprised and the driver was surprised someone didn’t complain about his truck being in the road stopped.
I have to ignore my neighbors babies in the street because the cops just use the visit as an opportunity to redress my complaints against the cops instead of when I file a complaint.
