OK - Mom Arrested After 4 Yr Old Shows Up At School Drunk

[KOOL LOOK]

Exactly just like the numerous news makers where parents are employing their children to shoplift.

Now Filly, darn it, that's a whole lot different than what I'm saying. That's intentional criminal activity, and shoplifting across the board is illegal. Alcohol is not illegal in our homes, and yes children occassionaly sneak into the cookie jar, in this instance, the beer can.

Don't think this needs to be national news, for pete's sake. There has to be a balance. DSS called in, lol, they take over when not necessary and ignore the children getting the living hell beat out of them til their lifeless bodies lie limp.

My mother never drank, but during big social gatherings and big fancy corporate parties, my mom would let me snip sip a little wine around the ages of 13 and up. I went to the free for all bar tryin to sneak me a nother glass and I could hear my mom from across the ballroom, "Make hers a Shirley Temple. I was too stupid to know it was alcohol free, and got drunker, no wonder everybody laughed at me.

KOOL, I totally agree with you. Is that a first for us?? lol I don't believe this woman KNEW the child was DRUNK, or at least, we don't know if that happened.

There is zero evidence thus far, that the child is living with her careless alcoholic mother.

I think we use to agree in chat didn't we? long time ago. I'm glad we do agree, I always like you. I haven't seen any evidence of an over the wagon drunk mother and un-fit home myself. I just can't see the mother knowing this child was drunk, take her to school and risk the chance of all of this backfiring and happening on her family. Doesn't make sense.

I don't think the little girl was drunk myself. I think the teacher smelled alcohol, beer, asked the little girl what happened. Little girl told her, she's four, and the teacher, then to school principle then onto a big humongous blow up instead of calling the parents in and discussing the situation and letting these handle it. Geez, I think some hens wanted their hay day myself. And tearing up a home ain't no never mind to them in the process.

I have an idea this happened in the suburbs. LE, like my community, probably has nothing much else to do, so this is big time for them.

You're a lightweight on them Shirley Temple's, Kool. I hear ya as we didn't have alcohol in the house either and we were permitted a sip of my dad's beer if we got on his nerves enough at a Christening or a function such as that. However I don't think if ya had snuck a significant amount of beer as in enough to get you drunk at 4 years old your mom would have sent ya to school. Personally, I think the lady was too drunk to notice or half asleep sending a kid t school like that. Hey, the media you know how it goes. Ummm, Kool my mom had me shoplifting TV's when I was four. It wasn't intentional. Naw, I'm just messing. It is what it is and it made news.

 

[Filly]

I really don't feel this should be national news.

Kool, looks like this made world news. That awesome journalistic Sun in Britain reported it.http://www.thesun.co.uk/discussions...k~45~theres_under_age_drinking~46~-60225.page

 

[SewingDeb]

Fox News said her blood alcohol was 3 times the legal limit. It wasn't just a sip.

A quote from the local paper.
The mother could be charged with felony child neglect, he said. Aaron was arrested last year in The Village on a possession of drug paraphernalia complaint, he said.

:blowkiss: You too.

Grace's link still doesn't convince me of anything major, either. I wonder what the other charge was for, exactly. I hope no-one thinks I would defend this woman if it were PROVEN that she was grossly negligent. I just have yet to be convinced that she should face a felony charge.

Sewing Deb....THREE TIMES?? Surely she would have passed out?

 

[deanws]

Daaamn!

Exactly! How could anyone be so stupid as to drop off a drunk kid at school!!?!?

 

[SewingDeb]

:blowkiss: You too.

You would think so. Just repeating what Fox News was reporting. Grace's link said doctors confirmed the child was drunk.

Yes, the world can be very shameful, that's for proving it. :blowkiss:

I feel like you. Something isn't stacking up here. Three times the legal limit, somebody's lying through their teeth if they have any. There ain't no way in Hades that child was up, got out of a car, got to class this drunk. A child can't get three times over the legal limit from accodring to the other published suppose to be factual article in this thread, it was eight ounces of beer out of a twelve ounce can. Who's lying? Somebody's lying, the contradiction is right here in the different links. Hogwash and foolishness.

You would think so. Just repeating what Fox News was reporting. Grace's link said doctors confirmed the child was drunk.

Thanks deb, I know your just sharing and I appreciate the news link. Can you see the contradictions as I? Doctors can be full of bull malarkey too, being as evil as others for they make up the fabric of society just like the rest of us. People put too much trust in doctors anyway.

 

[SewingDeb]

Yes, Kool Look, I can see the contradictions. I'm not sure how much alcohol a 4 year old child would have to drink to be visibly drunk. We just have the mother's word on how much she drank, don't we?

I don't think 3 times the legal limit could be right. Wouldn't she be passed out by that point?

I'm not an authority on the effects of alcohol, but I am an authority on my mind, and if it doesn't jive, it's because something is amiss. I know someone who was killed in a car crash who had passed out in the back seat of an suv and was thrown out and their result came back three times the legal limit. He was a grown 28 yr old man weighing in at 200 pounds and six feet 3 inches tall and had drunk must all of his late teen adult life.

It just seems to me we sensationalize and pick on the underdogs, the poor and easy targets of our society, but let a mean ole mother pressure wash a two year old, an intentional act of circumstances and many claim it's not abuse and that they've seen worse.

Well I say I've seen worse situations that warrant school officials, police, doctors and social services get involved concerning an alcoholic home, and this one doesn't qualify.

 

[SewingDeb]

Maybe this home needs investigating.

I hope the mother gets a good lawyer if this is all innocent and the poor child is not living in an alcholic home and being neglected.
