I don't understand why the parents were arrested. I mean, they didn't really do anything, other than letting there kid play GTA, which alot of parents do. It's not like they put him in the car and told him to drive. *****ing retarded.

What the hell were the parents doing when they have a 6 year old kid that needs to get to school? They've been charged with child endangerment because it was possible for the kid to get the car and drive off without them knowing. Stupid parents..!



Cool kid though, but not to cool for school!

.......but he should have skip that day and practice his driving skills a bit more

so a kid, instead of waking his parents up, decides to take the car for a ride himself. And now the parents are arrested and kids put in protective custody? What the hell is wrong with the legal system!

Parents have a legal responsibility to ensure that their children are safe and to take reasonable precautions in protecting their children. If the parents were negligent, they ought to be held responsible. If an investigation finds no negligence in this incident and an overall safe and healthy environment for the children, they're certainly be given back to the parents.

First off... public schools serve b'fast usually to less fortunate ... the poor kids. Always have .. always will.



Father 40 ... mother 26 ... now, call me jumping to conclusions but I'd guess we're talkin' about a family with a few other dysfunctions.



My parents woke up with me to get me to school .. that is what parenting is.



If your dog gets loose and bites someone, you're responsible for that ... if your kid does the same thing, only with a car, you are also legally responsible.



When something this bone-headed happens, I'd fully expect child protective services to get involved...



If it was a one time slip and the children are found to not be in any danger, I doubt there'll be much of a problem besides paying back the damaged property.

This story is jacked no mater how you look at it.



A 6 year old gets up in the morning, gets himself ready, and heads off to the bus stop on his own? WTF?



Yes, those parents belong in jail.



Then there's the BS factor of this story. HTF can a 6 year old reach anything in a car? HTF did a 6 year old know he was late for school? That's a little too high speed for 6.



Why did he take maters into his own hands? Was he afraid he was going to get in trouble?



Yes - HTF was taking the care NOT going to get him in trouble?



No - WTF would you not just go to your parents room and proclaim your mistake?



Any story that reeks of this many questions must be BS.

Exactly my point above, this story is BS.



The mother was asleep.

The mother wasn't asleep.

1.5 miles from ther school.

.5 mile from the school.



No sense in commenting on something of which the facts are all screwed up. People are just pulling figures out of their ass.

The mother should be in jair for a least 3 months for not being with her son at the bus stop. What'd happended if the kid got kidnapped? uh! i bet school was serving pizza that day.

....How did the father bag a woman 14 years younger than him?! Lucky guy.

she is probably fat and gross, but awesome job, if I was the cop that stopped the kid, I would give him 1 million cookies!!

this kid is so *****ing dumb no amount of school can help him he cites Monster Truck Jam and Grand Theft Auto as his sources for learning to drive (the monster truck is obvious No-No but also have you ever tried to not commit a trafic violation in GTA? Its HARD!)which is quite ironic that he chooses two games devoted to the ideal of *****ing up cars and lives.! Maybe his parents, (who would let a six year old play GTA, wake himself up for school, go to the bus stop himself and resort to driving a car to school) didn't teach him anything and thats why he was eager to get to school

A six year old with GTA? Very good parenting skills........

the infants who comment on this site consider those "fightin' words"



/lmao

Definitely awesome.

Wow this kid is smart. He was determined to go to school, lol. Sucks he crash, and he was so close. Funny a 6 year old with GTA.

The kid rush and grab the car keys and zoom took off. Now if I was the parent, How the ***** can I stop a moving car? Chase it? yeah *****ing right.



Ever watch the movie problem child? classic. He locks the damn car so nobody cant get in.

*unsuccessfully

LOL

the kid was prolly out of his mind after over-dosing on all the viagra pillz lying around the house...



I mean, the 40 yr old guy has to satisfy a 26 yr old lady. Can't blame him...

jack thompson does act like a 6 year old sometimes too. hahaha.

Ya but, just cause a parent leaves their keys on the table doesn't mean they're endangering their kid. They should then go knocking on every parents door and arresting the ones that leaves their keys on the table. The parents being asleep is another thing. But that's probably why he takes the bus. Maybe the parents work night shifts or something...



Anyways, I see no reason for the parents to be locked up other than for them not teaching their kid what is right and what is wrong.

"pulling figures out of their ass"



hehehe. did you know? 78.2% of people will actually believe made up numbers.









....LOL



um, anyways, who cares about the specific details. the story itself is going to be a legend in itself! and the story is simple: 6yearold kid misses bus, drives to school instead, crashes near school.



besides, why contest conflicting evidence in CNN and AP's reports if it won't matter eventually? i bet in the future, some people will start to morph into this urban legend or something. hahaha! could you imagine what it could turn into?



twenty years from now, a guy in his forties will talk to his friends over beer:



"yknow, some time back, there was this 6 year old kid who missed his school bus and wanted to go to school so bad because of breakfast (yea he was malnurished by his stupid parents, so his only source of food was the one provided by the school!) so he got his dad's keys and drove off in a semi-truck to go to school. yea! a 16wheeler even! he ran over a dog, a circus clown, and some pigeons, but they all actually lived. and when he got to school, he didn't find any parking. well, there was ONE parking space, but he didn't know how to parallel park. much less park with a 16wheeler truck. so he crashed the semitruck into the cafeteria and parked there instead. oh, and he missed breakfast."



LOL



and thus an urban legend is born! so. who's complaining about conflicting facts, hmm? hehehehe! XD

You can stop a moving car by never letting your kid get to the keys in the first place.



Can your kid run inside and grab your gun?

But is the babysitter hot? Come on now! Priorities!!!!

Think of it this way, if your gun kills someone, you goto jail.

I've gotta say, kudos to the kid for making it that far before totalling the car. And for being so anxious to get to school.



But WTF was the kid thinking? Taking his parents' car to school? You'd have to be the biggest idiot in the world not to see the huge flaws in logic there.



And wtf were the parents doing? "Oh, we were busy looking for our 4 year old's-" I DON'T CARE. Kids like this one need to be kept under constant supervision

Because the father wasn't there..... according to ANOTHER news source that had a THIRD set of information.

As there are already so many replies all good and valid I'll have mine.



1st, Who lets a 6yo play GTA? I have a 5yo and she's never seen me play GTA as its not the sort of game I want her to see. I dont even play it when she's awake.



2nd, Who sleeps while thier kid gets up and gets themselves off to school? I get up, make sure my kid is ready for kinder then take them there, I them come back and go back to bed. All good. This is what a good parent does. Not sleep through it anad let the kid do it all themselves.



3rd, Who lets a kid get near a car with the keys? My kid does sit in the front seat when she's already in the car but never with the keys. There should be no way the kid can ever get the keys and the car together.



Again, WTF were they thinking letting a 6yo play GTA..... They dont deserve kids. I hope they dont get the kid back.

Oh, and wow, a kid learned that by playing GTA... I guess he'll be in prison with his mum and dad when he gets older. Was he black? I bet he is.

Are you seriously this stupid or do act this way for kicks?

1. Who said I was American?



2. No, I said no such thing. Learn to read jackass. There's much more to it.

You sure you have a kid? Youre a child youself, teenage parent perhaps? What difference would him being black be? Grow up. No need for that.

nope. not black. just another stupid white kid. no black kid would ever take the car to school, just joyrides that end in a very funny arrest !
