Yeah, but would you leave her alone on a balcony where she can slip through the railings on her own? The neighbor observed the girl playing there with a slightly older kid, so it seems to me that she was left unattended for quite a while there.

But, is there any indication in that statement to show the parent let her out. Could it be the kids opened the balcony door and went out on their own without the knowledge of their parent. Of course may ask, where were the parents. Believe me, I'd my share of slip ups, when I though the kids are in my sight, next thing you know they are playing in the other room, in the backyard, in the garage .....

Yeah, I agree, sometimes you can be too careful and end up bringing up a real sissy of a kid. It's easy to see that when you think logically, it's a lot harder to apply that on your own kid though :-)

Oh definitely... just like when my boys are doing jumps on their BMX bikes... The protective parent in me wants to stop them, the part of me that remembers doing it as a kid lets them go for it, the responsible parent in me stops me from drinking too much while they are doing it in case I have to scrape them up and head to the hospital...

Or they would rather play a handheld video game on the way to school... Or they are too fat to fit on a bike... Or they spend so much time on computers they prefer to be driven to/from school... Or the increasing population density (and traffic) has led to roads too hazardous to ride bikes on... Or nobody goes outside because technology keeps us glued to our houses...

Piffle... Congestion surely makes it safer, as the vehicles are moving slower!! ;-)

French media are describing as a "miracle" the unscathed survival of an 18-month-old girl who fell from a sixth-floor apartment.[^]
The girl was left unattended by her parents when she somehow fell, then bounced off the awning of a cafe below. She had a further stroke of luck when a passing doctor saw her fall and caught her before she hit the ground, witnesses were quoted as saying. [. . .] The man who caught the girl was walking by with his wife and son when the boy spotted the girl falling.
Awesome bit of good fortune there. But her parents suck!

Didn't Britney once emulate MJ? (or maybe it's someone else I have in mind though)

Her parents did, but in her case, they let go. ;P

That's why I'd never let an 18 month old play on the balcony on his own (not even for a second). I was so hyper-careful with our son that my wife often thought I was being a little paranoid, but better to be safe than any other alternative. :)

When your kid grows up, he will be severely inhibited with a very depressive personality. A cave dweller.

CPS needs to forcibly confiscate that child immediatly where he will grow up in an institution full of pedophiles and pissed off butch women. A kennel.

Yes, I wasn't allowed to do anything, so now I don't do anything.

My little brother - more than once - managed to climb up the rails of his crib, pull himself up onto the window ledge, work the screen loose (which most adults couldn't get open without pliers), and fall outside the house to the ground. Whereupon he crawled under a bush and watched in silence as the entire neighborhood searched, screaming his name, in search of him. Kids do the damnedest things, and it's no reflection on the parents if they fail to imagine all the possible things a child can get into. Gross negligence is an entirely different matter, as is deliberately placing a child at risk, but we've gone much too far in trying to legislate a risk-free existence, even for children. Childhood is a time for risks, learning hard lessons, skinning knees and falling out of trees. Take that away and you create a generation of weaklings, unable to cope in the real world. Just like we have now... God help us, these useless creatures will be running things soon. :sigh:

hehe... nice... In Qld (where I live), the number plate "BOOGER" is still available, but it's near enough to $3000 to buy... All cheaper alternatives are gone... :sniff:

Is that a Chevy badge on a Holden? The plate should read 'Bogans'

I'm pretty sure some of the newer HSV's have chevy badges as they have big chevy engines...
