    Never feel bad for giving someone the benefit of the doubt. Better to do that than to accuse the innocent!

        totally disgusting.

        i wonder if this "woman" has any children of her own. i doubt she does if she was enough of an idiot to leave ANY child alone - let alone seven children who are that young.

        this is why young women with no children get discriminated against as childcare providers.

          On Daycare Bear The Childcare Providers Information Network there is information on this daycare listed.

          It states that she cared for 9 children and had 3 employees. Wonder where they all were?

            Not everyone "accuses the innocent". Some just have the facts or the experience to smell the poo quicker...

            The media tends to speculate and miss the point alot....

                It makes me wonder if there was anyone else there she is protecting? If that person is family she may be hiding even more.

                Sometimes in mistakes and tradgedy the provider is actually protecting a lesser crime.

                If she left an unauthorized person there she initially may not have told the truth thinking she would be in trouble for THAT.

                THAT is not anywhere near as bad as leaving the kids completely alone. If she can say words to make it look like SHE was there then she thinks she will be alright. She doesn't have to admit she had a person there who wasn't supposed to be there or that she was gone altogether.

                I wonder about the ages of the kid. The oldest is three. Would a three year old who was unsupervised play with a stove? I don't know the answer to that. Out of everything they COULD do in the house would THAT be what they would mess with?

                I could see them go to water or tear up the house/toys.... but going to the stove?

                One thing that is odd too is the time the neighbors said they saw her go in and the time she came out for help. They estimated ten to twenty minutes. That makes me wonder if the fire actually did start after she got back. What kind of fire would she have that she could work on getting out in ten to twenty minutes assuming it was already started when she got there?

                          All this and nothing about CARE

                          How about taking CARE of the kids?

                          It makes me so sad. What have we come to? Would this have had a different outcome if the providers child care was based on the physical care and supervision of the kids?

                          These ads tell you exactly what providers believe parents want based on their experience. What about careful supervision and CARE?

                            We are just back to the shell/nut game, again, Nannyde....

                            Buzz words, "I am better than you" store bought certifications, and lack of the truth....

                            The poor providers go through all this training, pay out more than they can afford to do so but never get the true training and support they need to do this job to the best of their ability. The children are the ones who inevitably pay the price.

                            We cannot be all things to all people, trying to be leads to becoming overwhelmed and making horrific lapses of judgment.

                            Did she deserve this NO!!!!! Can it happen again...yes, and sadly it will.....

                              OK...this is just my humble opinion, take it for what its worth.

                              I am 44. None of my friends or I went to daycare, eating at McDonalds was a treat, preschool consisted of Girl Scout Camp or Art Class, and Summer School meant ceramic class or kick-ball. In general, our Mom's stayed home and our parents stayed married. Before 1960 (yes, I know, I wasn't born until 1967) but before the 60's divorce was very uncommon, and the vast majority of wives stayed home with children. In the 1970's and 1980's, when many of my daycare parents were born, the divorce rate skyrocketed and women returned the work force in droves. McDonalds and the like went crazy, houses got much bigger, and obesity started running rampant.


                              Do they really need to read by kindergarten, a 4,000 square foot house, or $300 electric Barbie cars? Probably not. But, as long as parents can justify their lack of time and attention to their kids by assuring themselves that kids need the best early "education," the nicest neighborhoods, and Mom really needs a $30,000 SUV, we'll have kids in daycare for all sorts of time while Mommy decompresses from her busy day of supplying her children with the best of everything and nothing that they really needed to begin with.

                              Stepping down now....

                                I don't agree with someone that young being ABLE to have that many kids alone especially under three. My State allows it too and I disagree with it.

                                But if you ARE going to allow a 22 year old to have six (sounds like she was supposed to just have six) kids that age then you need to REQUIRE that they do NOT do an educational program along with care. A 22 year old can NOT provide excellent care to this many really young kids by herself AND do a full preschool program.

                                I don't care how educated she is and I don't care how many years she has watched kids. It's TOO MUCH.
