Street Kids

Seems that infamous "sleeping mom" Nancy Dyer, whose toddler son was found wondering a highway as she napped a few months, has competition for "Mother who lets their kids play in the road" award.

NBC2- A Port Charlotte mother of three was arrested for child neglect after her young son was found walking the streets unattended. When deputies finally tracked down his mother authorities say she was high on prescription drugs.

A woman who lives on Hinton Street in Port Charlotte called the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office Tuesday morning after a four-year-old boy knocked on her door and said he was lost.

When deputies arrived the boy was upset and crying, but he was able to tell them his mother's name, 29-year-old Erica Elese Hernandez.

I suppose there is nothing like being high on drugs while your children play Frogger on the streets.

Oddly enough, it doesn't end there. Yet another child (this time in PA) has taken to playing on a highway- although it appears that no charges are being sought in this case, it appears to be more of a "everyone was asleep at 3 in the morning, and a little tot too smart for his own good wondered outta the house" case than a "mother is a drug addict who can't clean up long enough to prevent her kids from getting into dangerous situations".

Philly.com A 3-year-old boy wandered outside at 3 a.m. yesterday and onto a Lancaster County highway - where a motorist found him, put him in his car, and flagged down a police officer.

He loves me, he loves me not, oh what the heck he loves me...

It seems to resemble a bit of a 3rd grade crush. Mag said first grade ... but it's really less annoying that having my ponytail pulled. He loves me... after all, he keeps linking to me . He loves me not... evidently that's why he uses my comments out of context and twists my words... he loves me, because clearly he likes to "poke the bear" (That 70's Show quote). Yes, I just referred to myself as a bear. A lot less hairy, but no less scary. Because anyone that thinks you should be locked up for the rest of your life is indeed scary. Especially when she likes to go around telling everyone how demented you are... and how she'd like to see you locked up forever. And even more scary when you know that it's the truth she speaks. And Lindsay, he is demented. And he should be locked up forever. And, well it seems that he is a fan of mine. Yep, that sick lil monkey can't help himself.

Mom Arrested After Baby Found Mauled By Dogs

This is a story that I really don't want to share, it angers me all the while breaking my heart at how someone could be so cold and callous. My only comment is that there is always a better way. Some may of thought of going to the hospital, others may have thought about calling someone- anyone for help. But the complete disregard this person showed is horrifing. PORTSMOUTH, Ohio -- Investigators said the badly-mauled body of a newborn infant was found Tuesday afternoon on the banks of the Ohio River. The next day, the baby's 21-year-old mother was arrested after admitting to a hidden pregnancy. The mother told investigators that the baby was still-born at home. She said she panicked and disposed of the baby boy a few miles from her home, NBC 4's Erin Tate reported. The investigation began after authorities received a 911 call from a frantic mother. Dispatcher: "911, what's your emergency?" Caller: "My kids were just outside, telling me that the dog was ch...
