World’s Stupidest Grandmother
Earlier this week, a woman was arrested for driving a car with a three year old on the roof. The woman in question was the child’s grandmother, and when confronted by police, argued that she was driving very slowly, in a parking lot, and that the girl was completely safe because she was also holding on to her leg.
Of course, using that logic, car seats are no longer necessary, since a parent or guardian’s hand on their leg is enough to keep a child from bodily harm.
I could not believe the story when I read it. Initially, I thought that the grandmother had placed the child on the car while loading it (a debatable practice itself, but one I could halfway understand) and then started the vehicle in motion before realizing the little girl was not secured inside her car seat. When I realized that this was not the case, and that the girl was being taken for some bizarre form of toddler joy ride, I was mortified. To say that the woman’s actions lacked good judgment is an understatement. What she did was just plain stupid.
What do you think about this story?

I just cannot believe that someone would do that!!! I wonder what the parents think? It would be awfully hard to trust that lady again.
