when I was a kid, my mom dropped us off at the public pool/library complex
for the park for the day during the summer when she couldnt afford a sitter.
I dont know why she didnt leave us at home, unless she didnt want the
neighbors seeing we were home without parents.she packed us a lunch which we
ate soon after we got there and starved the rest of the day with no food or
money. I still have real issues about this to this day. This was in the mid
70's.

And just yesterday on the Hannity Radio Show he talked about how the new
thing is for parents to drop their 2-5 year olds off in the public library
then go to work or to play tennis or some crap like that.  He said the
librarians try to keep the children busy for 8+ hrs with no food and no
place to play besides in the libary.

I'm having a hard time believing this.  If I were a librarian, I would have
called the police and DSS after 5 minutes if a 2-year old was left without
supervision in the library.

  She wasn't "waiting around near a car wash".

  She was walking home from a friend's house, and cut through the parking
lot of the carwash to save distance.

  (According to early reports, she followed this route often)

  I would hate to have had a childhood where I couldn't walk a mile to a
friend's house. Or jump on my bike and ride a couple of miles to the store.

  It was these times off on my own (or with a groups of friends) that
defined, more than anything else in my life, who and what I am.

  It was learning to apply or discard rules I'd been given by parents,
teachers, sibling and friends that led me to who I am today.

  Well, let's see if the man did it or not.

  The bottom line it, whoever would kidnap a little girl is an animal.

  You know, the idea of an 11-year old waiting around near a car wash
  bothers me a great deal too. I don't understand people who don't cherish
  their children and go the extra mile to make sure things like this don't
  happen.

  Man, I am gonna have to drive my kids everywhere. I already do, but they
  are
  still too young. They are gonna hate me, but I am not giving some sicko
  any
  chance with my babies if I can help it. When my 9 year old daughter is
  over
  at a freinds house (that we drive her to), I am concerned the whole
  time. I
  cannot even imagine the absolute stark horror this girls parents are
  going
  through right now. How do they even function?

  I know innocent until proven guilty, but this guy is garbage.....

  Even if they find her alive(doubtful), he should still fry.....
