I see only one problem with this story..it is actually giving me a little faith in humanity. Cause it is about dang time.
Engaged to the amazing Marmalady. She is my Silver Dragon, shining as bright as the sun. I her Black Dragon (though good honestly), dark as night..fierce and strong.
As a former pet store worker; I feel their pain so much. Far too many idiot parents see shops like pet stores, game shops etc as a free babysitting service. We even had to put in a sign saying our store was not a creche.
People who don't like cats were probably mice in an earlier life. My DeviantArt.
Far too many idiot parents think stores are free babysitters. I've worked at many places where kids got dumped (drug store, novelty store, pet store, etc.) by parents too cheap to pay for a babysitter. It's just wrong. The employees have enough to do without having to watch some stranger's kids, and if the kid disappears while the employee is serving a customer, you just know that will happen.
I'm glad this fool got arrested. Let's hope the word gets out.
Awesome! Parents doing crap like this is a never-ending problem for stores like these; had to call the police a couple times myself for kids left alone in our game stores. The parents never thought it was a 'big deal' Grrrrrr....

Yes, the employees (note not babysitters) and store will be the ones sued....with no insurance, license or training for this sort of thing.
I'm trying to see things from your point of view, but I can't get my head that far up my keister!
