2. Glitch Serpent: that's some questionable parenting right there, wonder what they'd do in an actual emergency
3. Lucasw: What exactly is wrong with this kid being allowed to walk alone, anyway?
4. Adamvoss: not sure what's more disturbing, the initial decision or the length of time she had to deal with the aftermath. my 5-year-old nephews wouldn't be caught dead
5. Ruby: I don't get why the authorities had to be so aggressive here
